In Sublime Text 2, if you get a warning message:
A plugin (WakaTime) may be making Sublime Text unresponsive by taking too long (0.017332s) in its on_modified callback.
To fix this, go to Preferences โ Settings - User
then add the following setting:
"detect_slow_plugins": false
First, turn on debug mode in your WakaTime.sublime-settings
file.
Add the line: "debug": true
Then, open your Sublime Console with View โ Show Console
( CTRL + ` ) to see the plugin executing the wakatime cli process when sending a heartbeat.
Also, tail your $HOME/.wakatime.log
file to debug wakatime cli problems.
The How to Debug Plugins guide shows how to check when coding activity was last received from your editor using the User Agents API. For more general troubleshooting info, see the wakatime-cli Troubleshooting Section.
