Stylus Studio is regularly tested against files that are up to 120 MB. How well your installation of Stylus Studio can create, open, and manipulate such large files, or even larger files, depends on Troubleshooting PerformanceTable 10, Performance Symptoms summarizes performance symptoms you might experience and where to find information on addressing them.
Changing the Schema Refresh IntervalAs you edit an XML document, Stylus Studio displays a pop-up menu that lists the elements and element attributes you can create. Stylus Studio retrieves this information from the document's schema. The frequency with which Stylus Studio retrieves this information can affect XML editing performance. The default refresh interval is 10 seconds. If XML editing performance is slow, increase the refresh interval that Stylus Studio uses to refresh the schema information. To change the refresh interval:
1. From the Stylus Studio menu bar, select
Tools
>
Options.
The Options dialog box appears.
2. Click
Module Settings > XML Editor > XML Settings.
The XML Settings page of the Options dialog box appears.
3. In the
Refresh interval field, type a larger number. For information about how Stylus Studio uses this interval, see
Options - Module Settings - XML Editor - XML Settings.
4. Click
OK.
Checking for Modified FilesWhen you are working with files that Stylus Studio must open through network connections that might be slow, you might not want Stylus Studio to automatically check for modified files. Turning off this option can improve XML editing performance. To turn off checking for modified files:
1. From the Stylus Studio menu bar, select
Tools
>
Options.
The Options dialog box appears.
2. Click
Application Settings if it is not already selected.
The Application Settings page of the Options dialog box appears.
3. If the
Automatically check for externally modified files is selected, deselect it. For information about how Stylus Studio uses this setting see

Alternatively, you can select Disable check on hidden files, which allows Stylus Studio to skip these files. Hidden files are files that are in the Stylus Studio project or the Other Documents folder but are not currently open in Stylus Studio.
4. Click
OK.
