Hey,
I'm running TM 1.1b8 on a 400Mhz iMac DV/SE with 512MB of ram (running Tiger). Text rendering seems to be very slow... to the point where it really isn't usable. It's most noticeable when you're scrolling, or when you first open a document. It's slowest when syntax highlighting is on... otherwise it's not so bad.
The iMac does perfectly fine in other text editors, web browsers, and such.
Anyways, I just figured I'd get the word out, just in case nobody's noticed :)
Justin
I've noticed this also ... I think there was a recent thread on it in this mailing list about this, but it could have been about something else since I wasn't following it very closely.
I'll add some more here, tho since it does make TextMate difficult to use at the moment ...
Specifically I notice then when the syntax highlight needs to:
* Change the background color of a block of text. For instance, the new PHPBundle seems to change the bground of the phpblocks into a slightly off color than the rest of the (possibly html) page .. I'll see the background slowly change color as TM makes it's way down the length of the window processing/parsing the text to syntax-color it from top to bottom
* Also when text is set to be italic for some reason or the other (again , the php bundle, I think it does that for comments ...) .. rendering/typing is noticably slow.
I'm also primarily on an 867 G4, 1gig of ram, Panther.9 ...
I've switched over to jEdit for the meantime and kept quite since I was hoping/thinking it might just be an issue w/ the recent beta releases being 'unofficial' of sorts.
I reckon I could alleviate this by changing the syntax hilite to NOT do those things which I think makes it slow down, but I figured it's worth mentioning anyway.

I tried changing the Theme to the dark one, and I don't think it has the different background color around PHP code. It was still slow.
Sadly, I'm having to experiment with other editors now, too... :[

FWIW, I'm seeing the same thing with b8 on an iMac G5 (Tiger, 1Gig RAM). Syntax-highlighted Ruby code just sort of paints itself down the document. It's fun to watch, but the novelty quickly wears off :)

dito here for XML-mode on a 4000+ line XML-Document on a Dual 1GHz G4 with Panther. I can actually jump ahead of the 'coloring wave' and wait for it to catch up. Since everything seems to be threaded, I can start working in the uncolored section, but as Jack says: "The novelty quickly wears off"...

Why expirement with editors instead of rolling back to the latest stable in which this isn't an issue? b8 is working fine for me in Tiger btw, on the low end mac mini with a RAM upgrade.

b8 is the first version I've actually used. I guess I'll either go back one-by-one, or wait for it to be fixed.

Use 1.1b5!
There are multiple issues with 1.1b6-8 that affect speed. For high- end machines it shouldn't be a problem, except maybe parsing speed for complex languages, but since it's threaded, it shouldn't render anything unusable.

I tried installing b5, but syntax highlighting isn't working at all now. Do I have to revert back to older versions of the bundles?

You need to remove /Library/Application Support/TextMate (assuming that's where you did the checkout). 1.1b5 includes the bundles in the application.
The reason you get no highlight is that starting with 1.1b6 the language files contain no styles, and TM will use those from your checkout over the included ones.

There we go. The speed is far better than b8. Thanks!
