new versions of Everything is slower

Post by lpslp2 »

if some one compare latest version of everything with for example 1.3.4.686 -
then we will see that the search in the latest version has slowed down significantly. Yes, the search is still fast, but in for example 1.3.4.686 version - the search is lightning fast. And in the latest version it became just fast - that is, it slowed down several times in compare with for example 1.3.4.686. - I draw conclusions in an 8 TB filled with ~65% capacities (Everything say that below that searching around 2 105 545 objects).

but still i tried new version and go back because it strange - go to new version and get slowdown...

Sorry but a compare with the very old version 1.3.4.686 is almost useless.
The current alpha 1.5 or the actual version 1.4 have no delay after indexing is finished.

Thank you for your feedback lpslp2,

Could you please send some debug output from Everything 1.4?

Please make sure no search options are enabled under the Search menu. (disable regex, disable match path)
  • In Everything 1.4, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /debug
  • This will show the debug console.
  • Type in a search.
  • What is shown in the debug console?

To close the debug console:
  • In Everything 1.4, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /debug


There might be a memory usage issue...
Everything 1.4 will use slightly more ram than Everything 1.3.
Is your system low on available memory?
To reduce the memory usage of Everything 1.4, please see Optimal settings for Everything 1.4.


Please try Everything 1.5 (in development).
Searching in Everything 1.5 should be much faster than Everything 1.3 and 1.4.


Everything 1.4+ will use multiple threads to search.
Please make sure your CPU is not throttled. (CPU slowed due to overheating)

i tested 1.5 alpha and it even faster than ALL others versions. And because of that(movement in right direction...) i dont run /debug - because i think if in 1.5 problems solved - there is no need to spend time "here"

p.s. just want say thank you - your program is uniq. I put example how much - usually when i work, on right side half screen take browser, left side of screen vertically splitted in half and half is qttabbar and last left is "everything" - your program is allways running.
THANK YOU void for your WORK
