FastFold VS vim-commentary

Just be aware that the marker based folding can be annoying to collaborators if you are working on documents with other authors. With a plugin like FastFold [0] you should be able to have fast folding with the expr foldtype.

If you don't get great results, try changing 'foldmethod' (syntax is usually best but indent often works well). If vim doesn't have syntax support for your language, find a plugin that offers it. Even better if it defines 'foldtext' so your methods collapse down into an easy to read outline. I use vim-ficklefold to manage folds and FastFold to prevent syntax folds from making vim slow.

Could be foldmethod=syntax that's slow, try FastFold.

I have have the same problem. I found this plugin FastFold that seems to be what we are looking for but I haven't had the chance to test it yet. The general idea is to stop autofolding under most circumstances except when it makes sense.

Because in this case the way this plugin works causes folds to recomputed. Fold methods syntax and expr are slow, cause those are written in Vim script instead directly in C. Plugin FastFold lets you change this behaviour and update folds only on demand.

Some of those rules can be quite heavy on large files, so FastFold really helps here. It also prevents uncontrolled folds opening when editing, so just added bonus. Another plus are temporary manual folds.

Also, tpope/vim-commentary

https://github.com/tpope/vim-commentary does what you expect!

I've replaced most of my custom maps for commenting with tpope's commentary plugin. It's a great plugin. However, I wasn't happy with the lack of multi-line/block comment abilities so I created some maps to compliment the commentary plugin. Here are some maps that can be used with autocmd, FileType and for JavaScript comments.

commentary.vim + :h gq?

Having said this, there are some useful language independent extensions: jiangmiao/auto-pairs, tpope/vim-commentary, preservim/tagbar, junegunn/vim-peekaboo

vim-commentary comment code comfortably with motions and visual selections alike.

With a plugin like vim-commentary or comment.nvim
