Name mapping is slooooowwwww

Couple of things to check.
1) How exensively are you using "Extended Find" in your mapping? Each time in a hierarchy extended find is used, that's an additional "search" that is being done by the engine. This is not to say DON'T use the feature, just be aware that using it a lot may cause performance issues.
2) Are you using GIT as your source control? There have been several reports here on the forums that GIT, when activated as a source control, can slow down editing of NameMapping and other such things.
1) Extended find: Never, unless I have to. Which I have not yet.
2) hmmmmm Culprit perhaps. Thanks!
Hey, TanyaYatskovska .... there have been NUMEROUS reports here on the community that activating the GIT source control plugin in TC 12.60 is causing rather serious performance issues. Do you know if there is anything that SmartBear staff know about that need to be done in order to make sure that this problem doesn't occur?
I am seeing info in docs about not using source control. Is there a way to disable source control entirely from within TestCompelete? I never use it. I use external tools. Thanks
If you go to Tools | Options | Source Control, if you don't have the GIT option enabled, then you're not using Source Control through TC...
...however, it could be that the GIT command line is still processing file changes that are done in TestComplete. This seems to be an issue with GIT and the fact that TC does a lot of file processing when doing NameMapping and executing test.... I'll wait and see what SmartBear says.
