The branch is much faster, indeed, but still font-lock imposes a
significant penalty on commands that needs to redisplay. For example,
running the following simple benchmark:
(defun scroll-up-benchmark ()
(interactive)
(let ((oldgc gcs-done)
(oldtime (float-time)))
(condition-case nil (while t (scroll-up) (redisplay))
(error (message "GCs: %d Elapsed time: %f seconds"
(- gcs-done oldgc) (- (float-time) oldtime))))))
on long-line.xml produces a 15-fold slowdown with font-lock turned on
as compared to its being turned off (203 sec vs 13 sec).
This is an unoptimized build, so you will probably see times that are
4 times faster, but I'd be interested in the relative times on your
system. Any explanations of the slowdown are also welcome.
