Hi !
With Emacs 26.1 or 26.3 on my Xeon Debian box, I have some problems with
the following C++ file:
https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/master/src/devices/cpu/z80/z80.cpp
(which is part of the Mame project).
When I open it and press several times the "page down" key, Emacs seems
to hang. In fact 100% of the cpu is consumed during 10 to 15 seconds.
Then it works well.
My Emacs config is nearly empty.
The C++ code is a little special as is contains lot of macros, but I can
open it and navigate into it without problem with vim or VSCode.
If I turn off syntax highlighting, it run smoother.
Thanks for the help !
Olivier

Hello Olivier,
Thanks for the report! Could you try Emacs 27 (or git master), building from source if necessary? Those versions should be slightly faster, although the response time is probably well below acceptable.
If we distill the essentials of your file to some sort of benchmark, we might end up with:
(with-temp-buffer
(c++-mode)
(dotimes (_ 1000)
(insert "OP(ed,b0) { ldir(); } /* LDIR */\n"))
(garbage-collect)
(let ((t0 (current-time)))
(font-lock-ensure (point-min) (point-max))
(time-to-seconds (time-since t0))))
Emacs 26.3 runs it in 11.9 s on this old lappy, but Emacs 27 does it in 3.3 s. This is a clear improvement but we should be able to do better. Alan may have a feeling for where the cycles are spent.

Hello, Mattias and Olivier.
Firstly Olivier, thanks for taking the trouble to report the bug.

I've bisected CC Mode to find the critical change, and it is:
commit cc80eeb4a43d2079963de3d181002a6a6b56560d
Author: Alan Mackenzie <acm@muc.de>
Date: Fri Apr 12 20:07:03 2019 +0000
Analyze C++ method with & or && ref-qualifier as defun, not brace list
Also firm up detection of beginning of brace list in
c-looking-at-or-maybe-in-bracelist.
I have a simple benchmark which scrolls through a file, fontifying it,
and my results from this benchmark are:
(i) Before applying that patch: 53.022s.
(ii) After applying that patch: 7.039s.
I don't understand at the moment why that patch sped up scrolling in your
(Olivier's) file, but it would seem the patch is most desirable.
Unfortunately, the patch won't apply cleanly to the Emacs 26.3 sources.
It might be possible to find a sequence of patches which would do the
job. I think (though I haven't checked) the patch will have been
included in the upcoming Emacs 27.1 release.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately, I am out of my home, with no PC, for the week-end.
If I'll survive, I will test it next Monday. Very sorry !
;-)

Olivier

Hello, Olivier.

Emacs 27.1 was released just a few weeks ago. Maybe you're already
using it.
I think CC Mode processes the test file fast enough on 27.1, so it's
probably time to close this bug. What do you say?

Hello Alan,
Ping reply !
;-)
I was sure I had already answered. Sorry for that. With a fresh compile
of Emacs 27.1, it is effectively faster than before. So, for me, you can
close the bug. Many thanks ! Regards, Olivier

Thanks. I've closed the bug now, as fixed in Emacs 27.1.
