Subject: Use of display properties as a caching mechanism
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 12:19:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51b0095d0906240319m3ecfcb23yc5dda4ce6d0a0ee0@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
When hacking the org-icons stuff, I came to realize that emacs allows
to attach any set or property/value to any part of a buffer.
It seems to me like org-mode could perfectly use this as a caching mechanism.
What bout storing time-expensive informations as special properties
attached to the first '*' of a heading ?
The price to pay would be to enforce the consistency of this cache --
as with any cache, after all; as a benefit, this may boost org-mode's
performances.
What do you think ?
Nicolas
