If the output is getting parsed in some way then it can get really slow. For example, automatic highlighting of matching-parenthesis is great 99% of the time, but can hang the process for several minutes on large outputs (eg. a MySQL dump of serialised PHP objects). On a related note, the "clear" function at http://www.khngai.com/emacs/eshell.php can help speed things up when your buffer gets large; it's basically like "reset" in bash. The reason it's useful is that the shell prompts in an eshell buffer are marked as read-only, so trying to clear a region containing prompts will fail. I'm sure there are other workaround for this, but running a "clear" command is easy enough :) |
