[Bug 46787] New: Notepad++ rather slow (GetLocaleInfoEx)
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46787 Bug ID: 46787 Summary: Notepad++ rather slow (GetLocaleInfoEx) Product: Wine Version: 4.2 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: linuxhippy(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 63803 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=63803 sysprof profile screenshot Running Notepad++-7.6.3 on wine is a rather painful experience, as Notepad++ is rather slow. When keeping a key pressed, characters appear in blocks and Notepad++ consumes 90% cpu. Please see the sysprof profile attached, it seems a lot of time is spent inside (GetLocaleInfoEx). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

DirectWrite does actually call to GetLocaleInfoEx(). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

That's pretty disappointing, as the author could have at least tried to help. In any case, I was wondering if anything else can be done about this bug? It's 2022 and there's still no other editor that comes close to Notepad++. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46787 --- Comment #5 from Nikolay Sivov <bunglehead(a)gmail.com> --- At least in releases I tried, the way directwrite is used is rather suboptimal. As I recall it simply recreated layout object every time text changed. That means that if you have 100 words paragraph and you type a space somewhere in it, all of it gets reshaped. Obviously when files gets larger, shaping time increases. Now, I don't know if there is some advanced word cache on Windows that reduces the impact, but for the best performance editor should implement layout itself, and use lower level API - GetGlyphs/GetGlyphPlacements. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I've tested this issue in latest wine and N++ 8.6.4 and it is no longer present. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46787 --- Comment #8 from Nikolay Sivov <bunglehead(a)gmail.com> --- GetLocaleInfoEx() is now using nls data in compatible format, that might already be faster, so maybe another sysprof run with npp 7.6.3 and current wine could show something. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46787 --- Comment #9 from Joan <sam(a)roque-worcel.com> --- I've just retried with Notepad++ 7.6.3 and it's still extremely slow. Slowness seems to occur with the autocomplete window. Disabling the window seems to fix the issue. There are several problems with the autocomplete window, such as the fact that it has a "title bar" on top when it shouldn't. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

I could identify some overhead from GetLocaleInfoEx under wine-4.2, but it no longer appears to be significant on wine-9.9. There may be other performance issues with Notepad++, but I think the original issue with slow performance attributable to time spent inside GetLocaleInfoEx is no longer an issue. A new bug should be opened for other Notepad++ issues. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
