Has anyone else noticed that after adding Delphi Speedup that their D7
IDE suddently became stable as a rock?

It is the weirdest thing, but every since I put in Delphi Speedup 1.5,
I have had zero IDE crashes and I've probably put in close to 30 hours
of coding this weekend (ok, so I don't have a life...) and except for
2 VERY recoverable "internal errors" that didn't need an IDE start to
get past I have had nothing but smooth sailing.

The day before that it was like twice an hour I'd have to restart the
IDE to get anything resembling stability.

Anyone else seeing similar improvements?

Man, I just like how fast Delphi boots up. First thing in the Morning it
takes 10 seconds to launch then after that 4-5 seconds.

I'm happy

Now if only the IDE were open source, we could have these performance
gains and more.

D7 with GExperts running fine with DelphiSpeedUp (DSU) here.

The OP suggested more stability since installing DSU, but D7 was always
stable for me, so I see little difference in that area.

Once I uninstalled and reinstalled the latest GExperts it was Fine.

FastMM did a little for me, but nothing compared to DSU.

I do most of my work in a Virtual machine, and the speed up was
dramatic. I got to see it run on a natively hosted session of Delphi
today and I was astonished by just how fast it is there (virtual
machines are slower - after all, you are running the over head of 2
oses and your tasks in the virtual machine have to slice together
inside the slice of a single task on the host machine)

Try uninstalling your trial version "Code healer". (interestingly, I
haven't heard of anyone having any troubles with code header that
wasn't a trial version - makes you wonder if some sort of license
protection scheme is choking on the hooking!)

Totally different direction then the experience I had. I get a couple of
AV's upon exiting and notice little of no change in speed. I uninstalled
SpeedUp and my D7 returned to 'stable as a rock'.

I've read elsewhere where a couple of others had the same experience as I
did. One solved the problem by uninstalling a Code Healer trial. I have
this trial installed but hadn't tested this out.

Just goes to show you that there isn't a magic pill that corrects
everybodys problems all the time although FastMM by Pierre comes darn
close. With every version of Delphi different users have different
experiences. SpeedUp is no different.

John,

Please see our previous messages in this forum (Subject: DelphiSpeedUp
1.5 and CodeHealer giving an Assertion failure) for more details, but
the basic issue is that FastObj, as used by DelpiSpeedUp, appears to
have a problem with creating instances of class that override the
NewInstance method.

The knock-on effect of that is causing the Assertion failures in the
termination code of the CodeHealer IDE Wizard. The end result is
harmless, the message simply indicates that an object has not been
freed correctly, but we don;t have a workaround as yet.

We've send a sample project demonstrating the problem to Andy
(DelphiSpeedUp) and Gabriel (FastObj) via email as we didn't want to go
public until we knew for sure, but I guess it is public now, so here it
is!

Regards,

SOCK Software support

Followup...

I created the NoFastObj registry change as specified by Andreas. I did not
uninstall anything, including the CodeHealer trial, and everything now
works without an AV. I also did not add the NoFastSys key as hinted at by
SOCKS. For me, it appears only the NoFastObj key was needed.

Thanks, I see that has also posted a work around to the problem by way of
the registry.

Funny, FastMM is where I noticed a speedup and more stability of D7.

This is good to hear as I am wanting to use a VM too. Actually, I have a
PC set up with VM Workstation 5.5 right now but am having trouble getting
the darn thing to recognize my internet connection.

I will try this later. But from what I'm reading more than Code Healer can
cause the problem to surface due to a problem with FastObj used by Delphi
SpeedUp. Be sure to do the workaround posted by Andreas earlier this
morning.

It works great !!!
It loads really fast, it switches from project to project very fast, and it
is very stable (just one AV in two days work). Excellent job.
