Re-opening the project: ~2 minutes
Closing Geany: ~2 minutes
Starting Geany: ~2 minutes

13:58:48: This is Geany 1.24 (git >= 235b861).
14:00:25: Project "D7" opened.
14:00:25: File /home/harold/checkout/XXXX/modules/contrib/registration/registration.module
opened(1).
14:00:25: File /home/harold/checkout/XXXX/modules/contrib/registration/includes/registration.forms.inc
opened(2).
14:00:25: File /home/harold/checkout/XXXX/modules/custom/XXXXmod/XXXXmod.install
opened(3).

This is without any sites enabled, so there are exactly the same files
as the tags.

$ find . -type f -name '*.php' -o -name '*.module' -o -name '*.inc' -o
-name '*.install' -o -name '*.engine' | wc -l
2746

Adding websites in our Drupal distribution will add 1-2 minutes per
site when indexing them with Project, it even seems/feels to be
exponentially, but I can't prove that ... but I do remember something
about sorting the tags on each added tag?
