Re: [orca-list] Links List - firefox extension

Yes, the question is: does the sluggishness / bottleneck come from gtk/gnome, at-spi, or orca?

Also when talking about slow response, try huge directories in
nautilus.  If I open a directory or folder with over 1,000 entries, it
takes a very long time to open.  A similar list in windows explorer
takes less than a second to do the same.

Hello,
I guess this is related to GTK specifically. All the huge lists and
treeviews I have noticed so far seem to freeze orca a lot.
E.G. list of tracks in rhytm box or list of messages in thunderbird.
Sorry for a bit off topic, now I am on windows with NVDA and all is
working great except of very little thing.
When a dialog is opened it has a text like
// end of dialog preamble
I have looked to the source and I can see you have accidentally left out
a greater than character before so this is not treated like comment as
intended I guess. This is on line 13.
