Git Extensions takes ~42% of CPU, !PERMANENTLY!, when I open specific repositories (pretty big projects... but I would not say huge. I mean we have ~20000 commits on the repos I'm talking about)

Opening smaller repos is not a problem, CPU is loaded and then drops down.

Can I do something to avoid this? (+ it's only on my computer... my colleagues don't have this issue opening the same repo)

  • GIT 2.28
  • Git Extensions 3.4.3.9999

  • btw, changing the 'Limit number of commits that will be loaded at startup' from 100000 to smaller amount (tested 5000), doesn't change anything. – PlaTyPuS Oct 01 '20 at 09:29
  • Can you try, just for testing, https://stackoverflow.com/a/28092576/6309: `cd /path/to/repo; git config gc.auto 0` – VonC Oct 02 '20 at 07:11
  • Hi! Just tried it, it didn't change anything :-(, but thanks for trying to help. – PlaTyPuS Oct 05 '20 at 08:44

I had the same. What helped for me was turning off the 'Build server integration'. As soon as I turned that off, the CPU usage dropped to a normal level.
