* perf(treesitter): smarter languagetree invalidationLewis Russell2023-02-23
Problem: Treesitter injections are slow because all injected trees are invalidated on every change. Solution: Implement smarter invalidation to avoid reparsing injected regions. - In on_bytes, try and update self._regions as best we can. This PR just offsets any regions after the change. - Add valid flags for each region in self._regions. - Call on_bytes recursively for all children. - We still need to run the query every time for the top level tree. I don't know how to avoid this. However, if the new injection ranges don't change, then we re-use the old trees and avoid reparsing children. This should result in roughly a 2-3x reduction in tree parsing when the comment injections are enabled.
