Default PyCharm behavior
Every time when
- I start PyCharm IDE application
- or re-open (restart) the PyCharm IDE application
- or re-open my existing project,
...PyCharm starts "Updating python interpreter" and "Scanning installed packages...".
Problems
- The project is located on my hard drive and was already 100% scanned. Nothing new to scan again.
- The project or project requirements did not change. Nothing to scan again.
- I would be happy to allow this background scans, but:
- they are very slow (~5-10 minutes);
- they are just totally useless because nothing changes between restarts.
What I want
Stop PyCharm from this useless resource-wasting slow unnecessary scans of already scanned projects.
