It's getting worse and worse and I don't know where to go. I've cleared and cleaned and restarted everything so many times my computer has started to ask if _I'm_ ok.
The basic gist is this: Using Android Studio (but also w/ VSCode) the fixes/intellisense/refactoring speed has become just absolutely intolerable. I will change a single line of code in a not significantly sized project and it will take seconds before any refactoring or auto-complete becomes available. And while 'seconds' doesn't seem like a lot, when it happens over and over and over, you start to build up some frustrations. And I've looked for solutions but submitting bugs just becomes so much finger pointing: "No, that's a Dart problem", "No that's a Flutter problem", "No, that's an issue with the IDE specific plugin" etc etc... and it's not like I'm sitting on some clunky machine. It's an intel beast with 64GBs of RAM and 36 cores running all the latest patches and updates. My `flutter doctor` comes back clean, Dart and Flutter SDK's and plugins are both at the latest version.
I've tried to search for solutions and there are _so_ many bugs/problems posted around this issue but it seems like none of them are being addressed and I feel like one of the biggest issues is that nobody up there at the big G is actually dogfooding their stack. And I mean Real Dogfood. I mean building and working in an actual project environment on a non-G connected laptop running the plugins/installs/IDE's as downloaded from the 'Real World' because this experience isn't something you're going to see by running flaky tests or trying to edit just a few lines here and there. It's not something you'll see/experience unless you're actually working in this environment.
I've attached a slew of images and even my `doctor` output. Everything in the images is taken seconds apart at times and requires triggering a save, closing files, re-opening files or just, waiting, before 'fixes' becomes available. In a couple cases, applying fixes before the analyzer finished the AST rebuild resulted in _more_ bugs as lines of code were changed erroneously or typos introduced _by the fix_ provided by the analyzer.
Where are we supposed to go for this? How do we get the info you need to fix this problem? I've deigned to try and dig in myself, but it's currently not even possible to build a developer environment for Android Studio much less the Plugins using the currently available instructions. I've tried and I've filed bugs and nada. So even if the public wanted to help, we can't. We're stymied. We have to jump through all these hoops, some not achievable, to try and contribute back to what is called an Open Source Project and purportedly _invites_ contributions but in reality, offers no path. Taking a look through the git log history of the Android Studio project shows **no** contributions from _any_ external users in the last 3 or 4 years.
I'm sorry/notsorry for the rant, but it's gotten bad and it's started severely hampering my ability to get anything done. As it stands, I spend every probably 5 to 10 minutes (maybe exaggerating, but it's definitely minutes) of every hour just fixing things that shouldn't need to be fixed, waiting for imports that were there or should take moments to look up, but take 15 seconds instead. I want to keep using Flutter, I _like_ Dart, but I can't keep working like this.
Tell me how to help you trouble shoot this. How can I launch a dart-analyzer analyzer to gather stats and help you see where it's getting bogged down. I use multiple versions of the IDEA tools suite most notably Rider, Python, Webstorm, and of course, IntelliJ, and _none_ of them show this sort of 'lag' except when I'm working with Dart.
