Hi,
Of course, I have many, many files in Org mode. All files I write (or touch)
in fact.
Of course, I would like to search through my files at some point in time.
I even would like to search through your files at some point in time, I mean
through =org-mode/contrib/babel= and =Worg= for example.
Hence, I put them in =org-agenda-files=:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; set which files to search for TODO entries and scheduled items
;; (avoiding hidden files)
(setq org-agenda-files
(append (directory-files org-directory t "^[^\\.].*\\.org$")
(if (file-exists-p "~/Projects/")
(directory-files "~/Projects/" t "^[^\\.].*\\.org$")
nil)
(if (file-exists-p "~/Public/")
(directory-files "~/Public/" t "^[^\\.].*\\.txt$")
nil)
(if (file-exists-p "~/Public/www.mygooglest.com/source/sva/")
(directory-files "~/Public/www.mygooglest.com/source/sva/" t
"^[^\\.].*\\.txt$")
nil)
(if (file-exists-p "~/Examples/Org-scraps/")
(directory-files "~/Examples/Org-scraps/" t
"^[^\\.].*\\.txt$")
nil)
(if (file-exists-p
"~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/org-mode/contrib/babel/")
(directory-files
"~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/org-mode/contrib/babel/" t "^[^\\.].*\\.org$")
nil)
(if (file-exists-p "~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/Worg/")
(directory-files "~/Downloads/emacs/site-lisp/Worg/" t
"^[^\\.].*\\.org$")
nil)
))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The problem is the load-time of my Emacs, now:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Emacs Init startup time: 221 seconds.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
coming from 20 seconds before the heavy use of Org...
with tens of times such lines in my *Messages* buffer:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

You'll tell me: not a problem, you do that only once a day, and you use Emacs
client/server for the rest of the time. True. A bit, because I sometimes have
to restart Emacs for testing a fresh one (not impacted by defvars already
defined, or deffaces, etc.).
Having to wait almost 4 minutes is a real pain. So, here my
comments/questions:
- Isn't it possible to delay the fontification/ispell/etc. to when we really
display (i.e., pop up) the buffer? I guess this must be a major component
of the time this takes.
- Couldn't we have 2 vars: =org-agenda-files= for the files you know you want
have scanned for the agenda construction, and an extra list such as
=org-search-files= for files not containing any dates? Then, some time
would have to be taken when =C-c a s=, but not before. And not if you don't
search for anything in your Org files during that Emacs session...
Any other idea?
Best regards,
Seb
