A folder with 20,000 files took 11 seconds before its compress started, with the app frozen, and then wrote for half a minute with nothing on screen. Three causes, all fixed here. The folder was read on the main actor. ArchiveState.add walked it synchronously, and most of the time went into bookkeeping rather than reading: `diff` and `entries` are published, and changed entry by entry every append copied the whole collection. ArchiveScanner, a new actor next to the loader, the extractor and the saver, now reads what is to be added off the main actor, one lstat per entry. ArchiveState only awaits it and puts the result into the archive in one change. Adds queue up in the order they were started, an add for an archive the window no longer shows is dropped, and a save is refused while one is pending. Removing a folder is one change as well. Compress never reported to the progress center, and Finder's compress has no window of its own. It registers a job now, before anything is read: the progress window comes up after its usual delay, can cancel, stays up with the reason when the compress fails, and the quit warning covers it. Quick Compress and the start page keep their own rows. A metadata sidecar was packed for every entry to find out that it says nothing. Only entries that carry an attribute worth keeping, or the hidden flag, are packed now. What goes into the archive is unchanged.

Use the required localization workflow for these entries.
The PR says these strings are awaiting the POEditor round trip, but the catalog already marks their English values as translated. Build the app target to extract the strings, then commit the catalog with values returned by POEditor. Do not prepopulate en.
As per coding guidelines: “New UI strings: build, then commit the catalog as generated” and “Write no translations into it, English included.”

It reads files and folders from disk before they go into an archive and never opens one. ArchiveLoader is what reads archives, and the old name put the two side by side as if they did the same thing.

A drop onto an archive window added its files one by one: a thousand files were a thousand reads, a thousand changes to the archive and a thousand reloads of the list, 3.3 seconds where one add takes 0.015. The drop now hands everything it holds to one add, through the collector the start page already uses. A read that fails for another reason than being cancelled was swallowed with the cancel. The add came back empty-handed, the compress job failed without a reason, and Finder's handler logged it as cancelled. Nothing raises such an error today; when something does, it is reported. New test with a clock, next to the ones that watch for the two causes found: 20,000 files are in the archive within two seconds, best of three tries. It fails when the old three attribute reads per file come back, which the other tests let through.
The block in progress becomes 1.1.0: there will be no 1.0.1. Two entries for the Finder compress work, next to the one for the empty zip.
In the log of every run, so the headroom under the two-second limit shows for the machine it ran on.
) The sidecars are AppleDouble under __MACOSX/, the form Finder's Compress writes. Until now only our own reader was asked to put them back. ditto, which runs when a zip is double-clicked, now is too: the metadata is on the file again and nothing of the sidecar tree is left. And unzip, which does not put it back, still gets every file whole, with the sidecar left where a zip from Finder leaves it.
The two-second limit was set from this machine: 0.3 seconds here, and a guess of 0.45 for the CI runner. The runner's first report was 1.45, its disk being that much slower, which leaves no room for a busy day. Any number of seconds is either too tight there or too loose here. The add is now compared with a plain walk of the same 20,000 files, made in the same test: it may cost six times that. Here it costs 1.6 times. With the old three attribute reads per file it is 17 times and fails.

Closes #278
The empty zip is gone since #283, but the reporter's project still took 11 seconds before its compress even started, with the app frozen, and then wrote for half a minute with nothing on screen. Their two log exports show both gaps (20,398 entries, 1.85 GB). A folder of 20,581 entries reproduces the first one locally and unsandboxed, so it is the code and not the sandbox.
What was wrong
ArchiveState.addwalked it synchronously, so nothing else got a turn until the last file.diffandentriesare@Published. Changed entry by entry, every append copied the whole collection and freed the old one, which is quadratic: about 70 % of the walk by profile. Another 22 % went into threeattributesOfItemcalls per entry. Listing the folders was 2 %.ExtractionProgressCenter, and only extraction registered jobs there. Finder's compress runs on a headlessArchiveState, so there was nothing to see at all.What changed
FileScanner, a fourth logic-level actor next to the loader, the extractor and the saver, reads what is to be added: onelstatper entry, on a GCD queue throughrunBlocking.ArchiveState.addonly guards, awaits it, and puts the result into the archive in one change toentriesand one todiff. Removing a folder is one change as well.compress(…, showingProgress: true)registers a job before anything is read. Finder's compress entries use it: the progress window comes up after its usual delay, shows bytes and speed once 7-Zip writes, can cancel with nothing half-written left behind, and stays up with the reason when the compress fails. The quit warning covers a running compress. Quick Compress and the start page keep their own rows.Measured
