Topic: Lean timeouts after adding an instance
Victor Porton (Feb 26 2026 at 13:27):
After I changed a theorem to instance, lake build started to timeout. I didn't create a circular dependency by this instance. Here it is:
noncomputable def theorem515_completeSemilatticeSup
[Filtrator.Primary α]
[SemilatticeInf (Filtrator.subset (α := α))]
[OrderTop α]
[OrderBot α]
(hcoreord :
∀ a b : Filtrator.subset (α := α),
a.1 ≤ b.1 ↔
@LE.le (Filtrator.subset (α := α))
(inferInstance : SemilatticeInf (Filtrator.subset (α := α))).toPartialOrder.toLE
a b) :
CompleteSemilatticeSup (Filtrator.supset (α := α)) := by
...
noncomputable instance theorem515_completeLattice
[Filtrator.Primary α]
[SemilatticeInf (Filtrator.subset (α := α))]
[OrderTop α]
[OrderBot α]
(hcoreord :
∀ a b : Filtrator.subset (α := α),
a.1 ≤ b.1 ↔
@LE.le (Filtrator.subset (α := α))
(inferInstance : SemilatticeInf (Filtrator.subset (α := α))).toPartialOrder.toLE
a b) :
CompleteLattice (Filtrator.supset (α := α)) := by
letI : CompleteSemilatticeSup (Filtrator.supset (α := α)) :=
theorem515_completeSemilatticeSup (α := α) hcoreord
exact completeLatticeOfCompleteSemilatticeSup (Filtrator.supset (α := α))
Any advice?

Here is the code:

It is impossible for typeclass synthesis to fill in the hcoreord argument, so this should not be an instance.
