Obviously, we all know this question has been asked numerous times. I am using latest Julia 1.8, and in my current research I am using Julia Makie/AlgebraOfGraphics for most of the analytics and plotting, and I am encountering a lot of usability issues due to the TTFP problem. I know Julia has done…

FYI, I filed an issue over at AOG: SnoopPrecompile · Issue #430 · MakieOrg/AlgebraOfGraphics.jl · GitHub

There are three grammar of graphics libraries that I have been happy to use and if any of them seem inactive, I would say it is because they are “good enough” or “complete enough”. I personally prefer AlgebraOfGraphics, not the least because it is part of the Makie ecosystem. But Gadfly (independen…

On every update, yes. That is why I haven’t done it. Makie is still in very vigorous developement and updates come often. I don’t want to do a sysimage every time. Unless you are using master from Makie, updates usually come once or twice a month, depending on how many changes accumulate and how …

Many agree with you, me included. As @Krastanov said, it is only going to get better from now :wink: Let me just drop minimal instructions to compile a sysimage with Makie alone (assuming you have PackageCompiler.jl already installed): Run julia --project precompile.jl (here I precompile both GLM…

Just to clarify a bit, because we have suggested much too many different options. There are three common options to make a sysimage (yes, that is too many options, this should be automated, people are working on this). manually using PackageCompiler using the VS code plugin (by far my favorite, I …

It’d be nice to tie sysimage generation and loading into Pkg operations. In most cases, there’ll be one sysimage per environment (loaded whenever that environment is activated), and most sysimages should be automatically regenerated upon package update. Ideally, there would be semantics to soft-pin …

It would be nice if, somehow, that could be handled by juliaup. Imagine that one creates the script to generate a sysimage, and juliaup tracks the julia version and package dependencies of that image, and warns the user that a “new version” of the sysimage can be built, as it does with regular Julia…

Is it possible to see which sysimage is loaded in an active REPL session? I am unsure if VSCode is really loading that image which took 15 minutes to build…

You could follow the example from the docs here: https://julialang.github.io/PackageCompiler.jl/dev/sysimages.html ❯ julia -q -JExampleSysimage.so julia> Base.loaded_modules Dict{Base.PkgId,Module} with 34 entries: ... Example [7876af07-990d-54b4-ab0e-23690620f79a] => Example ... (where in the…

You do need to go into the vs code plug-in settings and check the checkbox that tells it to look for the sys image and load it there’s a discussion of this in the docs somewhere
