Hi List,
Everytime I click out of textmate - like into firefox say - and then click back into textmate, it freezes for 30 seconds and I get the loading spinny thing. I monitor on top and it reports:
PID COMMAND %CPU TIME #TH #PRTS #MREGS RPRVT RSHRD RSIZE VSIZE 377 TextMate 0.0% 1:32.30 3 94 247 128M 16.9M 152M 485M
And then when I click into textmate:
377 TextMate 99.0% 1:46.34 3 97 253 130M+ 16.9M 154M+ 487M+
I've defragged and run the OnyX maintence scripts, restarted, trashed textmate and reinstalled, and rebooted and this still happens. Ideas?

Hi,
Everytime I click out of textmate - like into firefox say - and then click back into textmate, it freezes for 30 seconds and I get the loading spinny thing. I monitor on top and it reports:
Whenever TextMate regains focus, it rescans all of the dirs in your project to see if any files have changed.
This is known to be pretty unbearably slow if you're working on files that are on some network share ...
If that is in fact what the culprit is for you, this topic has come up many (many (oh so many)) times in the past, so if you search the archives, you may be able to find some ways to get around this "rescanning on focus" behavior ... in lieu of that, changing your workflow to have the files on your local machine helps considerably.
HTH,
