Re: (severe) performance issues

Nope.  that tab is the ONLY one that is updating, and
I have code in place so if that tab is NOT active, it
doesn't even update it at ALL.  I have tested this
VERY thoroughly..  By commenting out ONE LINE in my
code that updates the 22 labels on that tab, cpu usage
goes from "high" to zero.  Right now it does NOT even
update them all.  There is logic in place to reduce
the number of updates. (it checks based on last update
time, the number of times it's skipped, and a "delta"
from last value (if it changes too much it forces and
update)

I have yet to try placing the label into a GtkFixed
yet as per another users suggestion.
