* bug#69071: Emacs master branch: c-ts-mode is slow with large C functions.

Hello, Emacs.

Using Emacs master:

c-ts-mode is slow on large C functions when editing towards the end of
such a function.

As an extreme example, there is a function proto_register_rrc in the
file packet-rrc.c which is part of Wireshark.  This file is "available"
from Github, but sadly no longer freely available - you need to allow
Microsoft's scripts to run on your machine.  I'm willing to send this
file by email to anybody who needs it.  It is almost 10 MB in size.

proto_register_rrc is around 50,000 lines long, total size about 2¼ MB.

Near the end of the function, after typing a character, there is a delay
of between 9 and 10 seconds (on my 7 year old machine) before redisplay
happens.  This is too long.  Some optimisation seems needed.

On disabling font-lock-mode, the response becomes instantaneous.

Assuming we are talking about the same 10 MB file:

  $ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wireshark/wireshark/master/epan/dissectors/packet-rrc.c

or

  $ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wireshark/wireshark 
  $ find wireshark -name packet-rrc.c

might help?

I'd suggest heeding that repository's disclaimer and using the canonical
GitLab repo instead of the read-only GitHub mirror, but odds are
gitlab.com's JS won't fare better on the freedom front.  Debian's mirror
might?

Yuan, could you please look into this?

Oops, didn’t see this. I’ll take a look.

Before we continue, let me note that this seems like another case where tree-sitter-c parser chokes on some extreme C code. Profiler reports shows that almost all time are spent in treesit-parser-root-node, which indicates that all the time are spent parsing the text.

So maybe this is something to report to tree-sitter and/or
tree-sitter-c developers?  (Does c++-ts-mode behave better with this
file?)

We could, but honestly I don’t think they can/want to do anything.

I suggest to report this anyway: we don't have anything to lose, and
there's a chance they would like to do something.

Thanks.

I created an issue here: https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-c/issues/196

Hopefully it captures the issue.
