    SynEdit just got a major uplift

    I'm sorry, insufficient testing on my part. It seems that running SynEdit in debug mode has a huge affect on performance. Running a release is still fast 🙂 Thank you. Ps. I'm running a Dell Precision laptop with i7-6820HQ + Intel HD 530 + NVIDIA Quatro M1000M

    SynEdit just got a major uplift

    I'm using the new SynEdit with the SQL Highlighter. I've tested with a 250,000 line sql script containing a real mix of statements including comments, string literals, lots of brackets, etc. I don't see any lag or stuttering. Make sure to test outside of debug mode as that really seems to affect the dwrite stuff. My machine isn't a high end machine, it's an AMD mini pc with a mobile 4-core (Ryzen 7 3750H), Windows 11, Delphi 11. I can't say enough about the new features of the SynEdit, the new gutter stuff, the alpha blended select and especially the new way it does the end of row selections is really nice. Pyscripter has done an amazing job modernizing the control. It will be interesting to get feedback on what cpu/gpu people are using and if there are particular settings that seem to affect performance.

    simple SFTP-like server for Windows?

    I have been using it for several years to sync my photos and notes (from the DenkZettel app) on my smartphone to my desktop PC (via an old notebook running 24/7 which also runs pihole). Works very well. As to how fast it is, I have no idea. It simply runs in the background (as a service) and does its job.

    did Sherlock left DP?

    I'm OK, guys, thanks for asking. Not Corona, but I've spent some time in the hospital nonetheless.
