Performance characteristics of gtk_container_add for GtkList

[Michael Vance <briareos lokigames com>]

Can anyone give me a rundown of the performance characteristics of
gtk_container_add for a GtkList? I only recently realized that a
g_list_append is an O(n) rather than O(1) operation, and am a bit
spooked.

Thanks,

m.
