The Stratego editor is too slow. I just had to kill my unresponsive Eclipse when trying to open a 3300 Stratego lines file that contained syntactic errors (like “<<<<<<<<<<<<<” from a failed auto-merge).

Hi Sebastian,

I’m thinking this may have been introduced by the recent parser changes. Can you check whether the same happens in the 1.1 stable version? Thanks.

Bad issue number for a performance issue…

I’ve encountered something similar in the Stratego editor. When I typed ‘collect’, the parser would parse for 3 mins before I closed it..

The example file is available here. You can easily reintroduce the syntax error by pasting this "<<<<<<<<<<<<<" anywhere.

Does this happen only on nightly or also on stable?
