how do i get :paths-ignore-regex to work? i have {:paths-ignore-regex ["test/__optic__/.*"]} as the contents of .lsp/config.edn, and when i run clojure-lsp diagnostics, it shows me errors in a file in test/__optic__/noahtheduke/...
$ cat .lsp/config.edn
{:paths-ignore-regex ["test/__optic__/.*"]}

unsure if it helps or is related, but you might find this relevant. https://clojurians.slack.com/archives/CPABC1H61/p1743841520804229?thread_ts=1743786186.677809&cid=CPABC1H61
did some more digging and looked at :paths-ignore-regex too.
The path at time of matching regex is an absolute path, so you do need to start your regex expression with .* for example.
{:paths-ignore-regex [".*test/__optic__/.*"]}
How much RAM is clojure-lsp using on your machines typically when you look at your Activity Monitor or the equivalent thing on linux?
On my system (arch linux):
Private + Shared = RAM used Program
925.0 MiB + 1.6 MiB = 926.5 MiB clojure-lsp
---------------------------------
926.5 MiB
=================================
2.9 GiB thisisfine
(in above, note that this does not include virt memory, as if you count that, it's 32GB, but virt memory includes things like shared libraries, or mmaped files - but I don't tend to count virt memory, just rss (resident set size - the actual memory that is actually loaded into ram and currently being used)).
macOS:
Real Memory Size: 539.1 MB
Virtual Memory Size: 423.88 GB
Shared Memory Size: 9.5 MB
Private Memory Size: 488.1 MB
Tiny side project I'm in right now, one Clojure file: 359 MB. Work project: 847 MB.
LSP was using several gigabytes on the last data science project I did. I assume there is a lot of variation depending on the project being analysed.
Typically 6gb for me
work project, 30k+ loc Between 2-2.5 GB usually (mac)
yes it vary depending on the size of the project, especially because of clj-kondo analysis we keep in memory, in Nubank I did tests that vary from 300mb to 2-3 GB. mem improvements suggestions/PRs are always welcome as that is not trivial to improve
Other side question. How much memory do y'all have in your laptops
I have 5 clojure-lsp:s running (taking a total of ~3,2gb)… 32gb M1 pro mac, not worried about the memory usage
16gb asus zenbook
fwiw, docker images I run for databases and other auxiliary stuff to support the clojure apps, takes way more memory
between 0.5 and 1 gb
After opening our main project at work, 3.3GB.
