I have a decent size but not huge project that I’ve been working on for a while, and just recently it stopped loading. I suspect the issue is related to Refine wanting to load in record mode, because the last thing I did was move a column with very few values to the left-most position, in front of an index column. The project has around 40k rows but isn’t super wide. It opens but no data table ever appears, and eventually the browser (Firefox, Chrome, and Safari all tried) tells me the tab is slowing down my computer / had to be reloaded because of a problem. This is the view at which it stalls out:
I’m working on a Mac running OS 15.5 and OpenRefine 3.9.5. I’ve tried increasing the max memory to 22GB (my computer has 24 GB total). When I run Refine from Terminal and open the project in question, this is the log:
And this is the log from the JavaScript console in my browser:
Thank you for any thoughts about how to troubleshoot! I would be happy to start a new project and lose the history, but very sad to lose the data in its current form. Unfortunately I don’t have a backup anywhere near the current state of the data. I zipped the whole project folder and made it available here…
