Description

« Hide

Scenario:

I develpped my application and ran it. The rundir was bellow the project root, but everything worked fine.
I closed IDEA
I opened IDEA and tried to load the same project. IDEA spent more than 5 minutes parsing the log file (which BTW was about 1.7 MB) and when it finished it froze unresponsive, showing the MDI desktop background.
I killed IDEA and deleted the offending log file
After restarting, IDEA claims that it parses it again even if it's not there.

I understand that IDEA doesn't like the logfiles, but having to clean my cahces on every restart is a little too much...

I can suggest you to exclude log files from your project (they won't be shown in Project View etc)

It seems it's a price we have to pay for fast startup in 7.0. In fact, IDEA mirrors filesystem content into it's own storage and bootstraps from there initiating sync with real content AFTER the project is open (in background).
