Slow indexing by SourceKit-LSP

[JaewonHur]

Hi, I'm completely new to Apple ecosystem, and started looking into the project.

After building examples/ctr-example with local containerization framework,
I found that indexing by SourceKit-LSP (i.e., commonly used for swift in VSCode) is so slow.

It was not that slow when I built the example with remote dependency, but using local dependency makes the indexing really slow as it tries to build every related project (I guess).

I updated the dependency by swift package edit --path <local containerization> containerization.

Could I get any suggestions speeding up the indexing here?

I guess it may not be a specific issue of this project, but any suggestion would be really appreciated!

@JaewonHur I am getting this same exact issue when developing in containerization. Did you come up with a solution to this?

[JaewonHur]

I haven't yet.. I can ask somewhere swift experts maybe.

It's possible that the nested vminit project confuses the LSP, or the stuff wrapped around it (the Swift VS Code extension)

I found this extension that indexes the project very quickly, anytime I make any changes. It now shows the proper errors and warnings that I could not see before.

Tested the most recent changes with no extra extensions and it is working better now!
