This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I'm finding cperl mode in Xemacs 21.4.10 to be very slow (compared to 21.1.7, which is what I used to use). It seems to perform garbage collection every few key strokes, slowing down keyboard response when typing and when scrolling to the point of being almost unusable. This occurs regardless of the level of syntax highlighting (least to more) or whether fonts or colors are used. Please let me know what other information I can provide. Thanks, Diab ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: SunOS pelf 5.8 Generic_108528-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10 configure '--without-gcc' '--with-gnu-make' '--cflags=-O -native' '--site-includes=/proj/axaf/include /proj/axaf/include/libpng' '--site-prefixes=/proj/axaf/sun4u-SunOS-5' '--dynamic=yes' '--prefix=/proj/axaf/pkgs/xemacs-21.4.10' '--exec-prefix=/proj/axaf/pkgs/xemacs-21.4.10/sun4u-SunOS-5' '--with-toolbars=yes' '--with-menubars=lucid' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--with-dialogs=lucid' '--external-widget' '--with-workshop' XEmacs 21.4.10 "Military Intelligence" configured for `sparc-sun-solaris2.8'.
