After looking at the source code and running transloco-keys-manager find with a debugger, I found that the issue is caused by the table printing logger.log(table.toString()). The table contains several hundred lines, which makes the process appear to be stuck.

I guess I can close this, as it’s not a bug in the keys manager itself but rather bad performance from ci-table.

@davb11 Thanks for the investigation!
I'll try to find a more performant alternative or for sizes above a certain threshold output it as a markdown file, WDYT?

[davb11]

For context, I'm integrating the keys manager into an existing project where the usage of Transloco isn’t very well structured… hence the large number of errors returned by the find command.

Since this situation isn’t very common (or at least I hope so 😄), I don’t think it’s worth the time and effort to look for an alternative or to add file based output.

That said, I think that having the option to choose between console output and file output could still be handy, maybe like transloco-keys-manager find --output-file=result.md? Or doing it automatically when a certain threshold is reached as you suggested.

But again, this would be more of a nice-to-have than a real requirement.

I've tried to get back cli-table3 to 0.6.1 with a package.json override and it fixes the performances issue, so it seems that the package bump that happened 7 months ago has introduced this perf regression.

With version 5.1.0 I get result in 3 seconds, with 8.2.0 didn't get result in one hour.
