Oh, you get the benefit of explicit scanning?

We get the beauty of every file that's modified being scanned before the write "completes". It's an absolute joy starting a build and watching ~80% of the available compute be consumed by antivirus software.

Or, you know, normal filesystem caching as part of your tool's workflow.

Or dependency installing and unpacking....

Or anything actually that touches a lot of files.

Yeah was experiencing that for awhile, a couple of workarounds:

  • run the IDE inside a VM
  • Use windows "dev drive" and got the admins to exclude it from active scanning, but it seems like that setting has been lost recently ๐Ÿ˜•
