Source file analysis
Is there any way to get IDEA to analyse a source file such that it will find errors, warnings, etc.?
I have a 13000 line source file (wasn't me! I didn't write it!) and after an hour, IDEA 4.5.3 still hasn't analysed it to 'give it a green, yellow or red' so that I can see all the problems.
I tried the following in idea.lax in an attempt to give more resources to IDEA:
lax.nl.java.option.additional=-Xms192m -Xmx512m
The development machine has 2.5GB of memory so it shouldn't be an issue.

IDEA stops parsing when you switch to another window. IDEA needs to be the
focused application to parse a file. Was IDEA in the foreground for that
entire hour?

I understand why they set it like this, but I would LOVE it if it could
be disabled and allow it to continue. I have 2 processors and don't
mind dedicating one CPU to IJ while I'm busy doing something else.

Votes don't really matter now. It just has to have one to get moved to
Jira.
