The FGets function, when reading a mediocre file, works extremely slowly, up to the point of freezing the client and (or) the server.
For example, create a file with more than 100,000 lines.
The problem is exactly in this place:
v_Content += v_buffer;
void TestReadFile()
{
int v_LinesCount = 0;
string v_Buffer;
string v_Content;
FileHandle v_File = OpenFile( "$profile:test.txt", FileMode.READ );
while ( FGets( v_File, v_Buffer) > 0 )
{
v_Content += v_Buffer;
v_LinesCount++;
}
CloseFile( v_File );
Print( v_LinesCount.ToString() );
}For example, the same code in Delphi, with the Pascal method.
The reading speed is less than 1 second!
Procedure TestReadFile();
Var
F : TextFile;
B : String;
Content : String;
LinesCount : Integer;
Begin
AssignFile( F, "test.txt" );
Reset( F );
LinesCount := 0;
While not EOF( F ) do
Begin
ReadLn( F, Buffer );
Content := Content + Buffer;
inc( LinesCount );
end;
CloseFile( F );
ShowMessage( IntToStr( LinesCount ) );
end;*In DayZ, when reading a file of more than 500,000 lines, DayZ hangs.( Waiting for more than 15 minutes did not lead to anything ).
For example ~60 000 lines
SCRIPT : START: 20:25:57
SCRIPT : END: 20:26:14
For example ~120 000 lines
SCRIPT : START: 20:27:02
SCRIPT : END: 20:28:01
For example ~500 000 lines
Waiting for more than 5 minutes did not give anything. The server is hanging
