Loading of Large File Hangs

[ajardolino3]

I am creating a DiffViewer control (WindowsForms) just like the demo code. Works fine with small files, but when I have a file that has a few thousand lines, it hangs for a while. Eventually it loads, but it just takes forever. Not sure what is wrong. Can this be fixed please?

Is the delay from the core lib or the UI control?

I have the same issue (using DiffPlex.Wpf v1.3.1 in my NET5 winforms application).

The files that I tested were 40k lines of JSON.
The loading appears to happen during form.ShowDialog(), and when I try SideBySideDiffBuilder.Diff() it completes pretty much instantly, so it seems to me that the delay is in the UI control. (it also slowly consumes more and more RAM, up to around 2GB before I run out and have to kill the process in task manager)

Looks like the same issue as here: #87

i try， WebDiffer is fast, DiffPlex.Wpf is slow , InsertLinesAsync method is slowly , InternalLinesViewer ->StackPanel add
VirtualizingStackPanel.VirtualizationMode="Recycling" VirtualizingStackPanel.IsVirtualizing="True"
will not slow when drag,but load file still slow

i solute the question , changed InsertLinesAsync method
private static async Task InsertLinesAsync(Guid guid, InternalLinesViewer panel, List<DiffPiece> lines, bool isOld, UIElement source, int contextLineCount) { // For performance. if (lines == null || panel == null) return; var disablePieces = lines.Count > MaxCount; var i = 100; if (panel.TrackingId != guid) return; InsertLinesInteral(panel, lines.Take(i).ToList(), isOld, source, disablePieces); while (i < lines.Count) { //await Task.Delay(i > 5000 ? 1000 : 800); if (panel.TrackingId != guid) return; await panel.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() => { InsertLinesInteral(panel, lines.Skip(i).Take(100).ToList(), isOld, source, disablePieces); }, DispatcherPriority.Background); i += 100; } if (contextLineCount > -1) CollapseUnchangedSections(panel, contextLineCount); }
2 points:
500-> 100
Invoke ->BeginInvoke ,thread level is DispatcherPriority.Background

    private static async Task InsertLinesAsync(Guid guid, InternalLinesViewer panel, List<DiffPiece> lines, bool isOld, UIElement source, int contextLineCount)
    {   // For performance.
        if (lines == null || panel == null) return;
        var disablePieces = lines.Count > MaxCount;
        var i = 100;
        if (panel.TrackingId != guid) return;
        InsertLinesInteral(panel, lines.Take(i).ToList(), isOld, source, disablePieces);
        while (i < lines.Count)
        {
            //await Task.Delay(i > 5000 ? 1000 : 800);
            if (panel.TrackingId != guid) return;
           await panel.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(() =>
            {
                InsertLinesInteral(panel, lines.Skip(i).Take(100).ToList(), isOld, source, disablePieces);
            }, DispatcherPriority.Background);
            i += 100;
        }
        if (contextLineCount > -1) CollapseUnchangedSections(panel, contextLineCount);
    }
