gemini-cli - 💡(How to fix) Fix Slowdown after passing 10% context [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The slowdown in Gemini operations after passing 10% context may be related to memory usage or context handling, and clearing the context resolves the issue.

Guidance

• Investigate memory usage patterns to see if the 223.1 MB usage is a contributing factor to the slowdown.
• Review the Gemini operations documentation to understand how context is handled and if there are any recommendations for managing context size.
• Consider testing with a smaller context size to see if the slowdown occurs at the same percentage.
• Check if there are any known issues or updates related to the auto-gemini-3 model version that may be causing the slowdown.

Notes

The provided information does not give a clear indication of the root cause, and further investigation is needed to determine the exact cause of the slowdown.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Clear the context when approaching the 10% threshold to prevent slowdowns, while investigating the root cause of the issue.
