I recently switched from GeanyPRJ to Gproject. Since Gproject doesn't support multiple open projects I have to switch between projects, but it takes up to 4 minutes to close one project and open another. A project consists of roughly 1000-2000 php-related files.
The "Generate tags for all project files" causes this massive delay, but I really need that feature.
At work I have a 2-core CPU, where 1 is completely idle and on my desktop at home there are 5 cores are doing nothing while generating tags. Can't they be utilized to speed up the tag generation?
As a workaround I wonder if the plugin could generate a temporary global tags file (with geany -g). This would be a separate thread. Then tell Geany to load the tags file - this is faster in Geany Git as it avoids resorting all global tags. We would need to add a way to remove global tags though, but this is probably straightforward.

I just tried another workaround: I moved all my multisite projects into ~/checkout and only made symlinks for all projects I'm currently working on to prevent huge codebases. Just like sites-available and sites-enabled in Apache configuration ...
$ cat /var/www/drupal7/D7.geany | grep base_path base_path=/var/www/drupal7
$ ls -la /var/www/drupal7/sites/ | grep example lrwxrwxrwx 1 harold harold 27 Jul 2 15:34 example -> /home/harold/checkout/example
... only to discover that GProject doesn't follow symlinks :(
