Hi:

Using tramp I tried to use project.el with a command like
project-switch-to-buffer and it took like 10 minutes to complete.

I ran a profiler and I found that most of the time was taken by an
external function: global-tags-try-project-root

project-current is called in a loop for all the opened buffers it calls
project--find-in-directory that calls project-find-functions and there
is going all the time.

After some optimization in an external package; now the time is half
than before but still very slow to use the command (around 3-5 minutes
to complete) and running again the profiler I get this:

         5637  89% - command-execute
         5549  88%  - byte-code
         5549  88%   - project--read-project-buffer

            8   0% + redisplay_internal (C function)


As you can see most of the time is still taken by project-current and I
can't really understand why:

1) Are so many samples 4548 seems a very high number for only 25 opened
buffers.

2) why project-try-vc still takes so much...? Specially for unfrequent
vc systems in our days like svn or bzr that I am not using.

As a workaround I removed all the uninteresting handlers from
vc-handled-backends and I get better times now, but IMHO it is still
very inefficient (almost a minute for project-switch-to-buffer is
excessive). And make it practically unusable.

In any case:

Maybe (I think I mentioned this before) `project.el` needs a sort of
cache to speedup some functions like `project-current` that are called
very frequently inside the project.el code.

Related with https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=42966

VCS changing is not something that happens very often to require a check
of all the backends everytime, several times for every buffer in many
project.el functions right? Specially when using tramp.

vc has vc-file-prop-obarray; maybe vc-responsible-backend should cache
it's result there to avoid repeating time consuming computations?

Either in the local system the performance penalty seems to be
significant to me.

Best,
Ergus

IMO we can close the issue. If there are still some problems then I will
reopen it or create a new one.
