Frequent application crashes

[pjg]

I'm on MacOS using latest goneovim (0.6.10). I observe the application crashes pretty frequently. The app will just hang, the cursor will start spinning and there's nothing you can do apart from force killing the app. It usually happens when I try to scroll with the mouse a very large JSX file that goneovim is struggling to render smoothly (i.e. when scrolling, the scrolling will be jerky, the cursor movement will be slow, etc.).

I apologize for the inconvenience caused.
To investigate this issue further, I kindly ask for your cooperation with the following:

• Could you run Goneovim from the terminal using the --nofork option? If a crash occurs, please provide the backtrace (error message) that is output in the terminal.

  e.g.
  /Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim --nofork

• Regarding the large JSX file, could you let me know the approximate size of the file (e.g., number of lines or file size)?

[pjg]

I'll try running it with the --nofork option. It's not exactly a crash. The app just hangs and I have to force kill it.

The JSX file is not large, perhaps 200-300 lines. Just a lot of JSX tags. Plus my wild vim config.

If I force quit a stalled goneovim, there's no backtrace:

☺ goneovim --nofork                                                                                                                                                                                                            

zsh: terminated  goneovim --nofork

Managed to get the stack trace. Attaching.

Thanks for the additional info. However, no useful information was found.
I assume the problem is caused by some plugin, and I am trying to reproduce the issue with your settings, but it does not reproduce in my environment.

Just to confirm, would the issue reproduce with the following no Neovim settings?

/Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim -u NONE

[pjg]

When I run your command I get this:

☺ open /Users/akiyosi/debug3.log: no such file or directory

I might be using some daily build though.

Hmmm, it is strange to get such a message.
I am wondering about the contents of settings.toml in goeovim.
How about the following command?

/Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim --noconfig -- -u NONE

[pjg]

I've downloaded the official 0.6.10 release and I'm still getting that error when running /Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim --noconfig -- -u NONE:

☺ open /Users/akiyosi/debug3.log: no such file or directory

My ~/.config/goneovim/settings.toml file:

 # goneovim settings

 [Editor]
 # Default/classic vim mode
 ExtCmdline   = false
 ExtPopupmenu = false
 ExtTabline   = false
 ExtMessages  = false

 # Restore last window gemoetry on startup (doesn't seem to work)
 RestoreWindowGeometry = true

Sorry, this problem was a bug in goenovim.
It seems that there was some debugging code left over from development.
We have created a corrected property, could you please try the following?

I am also trying to reproduce the problem with your setup, but it does not reproduce at all on my machine. Could you please tell me what operations you commonly use in your Neovim on a command basis?

[pjg]

Now I can run the application with /Applications/goneovim.app/Contents/MacOS/goneovim --noconfig -- -u NONE but that's not a workable solution. I cannot use vim like this :D

I'm doing anything crazy. Just regular programming. gonevim hangs on mouse movements for me. Once, twice a day. Or once per 2-3 days.

The above is not intended to be a solution, but to see if the problem reported in this Issue can be reproduced with plain nvim without configuration. My intention is to identify the conditions under which the problem occurs, as my expectation is that perhaps a specific plugin is responsible for the occurrence of this event.

Okay, I'll continue my investigation.

FWIW the crashes usually occur when I scroll up/down or sideways. I'm using Apple's Magic Mouse (maybe that's a factor? its scrolling is kinda different from regular mouses).
