[R-SIG-Mac] R-gui slow since last update

Mon May 3 17:06:04 CEST 2021

Dear Peter, Simon,

Since I am not that of an expert in programming, is there any way to trace what happens 'under the hood' of the gui to see what exactly slows down the rendering of output on my end?

On the warnings, some more came today. How that happened and the text that came out are below.

Thank you for your help,
Yan

I looked at the Preferences -> Editor (once the window popped up, I clicked on the Editor with a mouse and the error came).
...
2021-05-03 16:50:36.184 R[73442:2450140] Warning: Expected min height of view: (<NSPopoverTouchBarItemButton: 0x7ffd104c17b0>) to be less than or equal to 30 but got a height of 32.000000. This error will be logged once per view in violation.

…

In another instance, hitting cmd-n (new native editor window) gave me this:
...

…

When in native editor, I hit cmd-w (popping the save file request) gave me this:
...

2019 MB Air here, Big Sur, 4.0.5 off CRAN. I don't see the issue either. (I do see the "...warmup" thing, though.)

Thank you Simon,

Regarding the "NS..." warnings, the following came just now when I closed the plot window (after a ggplot) with a mouse.

2021-05-01 20:53:35.117 R[2344:57535] +[NSSavePanel _warmUp] attempted warmup

Since they are usually random, I will log them for some time, and report back.

Dear all,

Beyond the occasional red warnings about the 'NSPop….' buttons, warmups, etc. and similar issues reported elsewhere here I’ve noted the slowdown of R console with more and more output. Here is what I do to reliably reproduced it on my machine - MacBook Pro 2017 with Touch Bar (sessionInfo() is below).

There are no known issues in R 4.0.5 so if you see any please report them.

1. Start fresh R-gui

2. Paste the following text in the editor. Note that lines are commented, this is enough to show the problem. It obvisouly gets worse if R has to evaluate.

# m[[ 1]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2))
# m[[ 2]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x3))
# m[[ 3]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x4))
# m[[ 4]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x5))
# m[[ 5]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x6))
# m[[ 6]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x7))
# m[[ 7]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x8))
# m[[ 8]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x9))
# m[[ 9]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x10))
# m[[10]] <- .f(update(fml, . ~ . -x1 + x2 + x11))

3. Execute as block once - the output appears almost immediately. Execute the second time - the slight delay is already noticeable. Continue to 3-4 time and the delay between the Cmd+Enter and the output is now up to 3-4 seconds and occasional beachball…

Thanks, I only have Catalina here and it does not exhibit that behaviour, the execution is always immediate. I'll try on the M1 Big Sur machine on Monday.

Thanks,
Simon

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Yan
