Re: [orca-list] I see some interesting problem with Thunderbird

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

Hello,
That time difference is significant, I hadn't realised it was that bad 
(I think my inbox is much smaller).

Could you check something for me? As I mentioned since switching to 
archlinux (I think this is when I moved to thunderbird 3.1.5) I noticed 
Braille is almost instant for me but speech is very slow to respond. 
Either using a Braille display or the Braille monitor feature (sorry 
latter requiring sight), do you find Braille updates much faster than 
speech? If that's so then it may be something which can be improved in orca.

Also do you know whether its only the change in version of thunderbird 
causing this or have you also changed the version of orca? Can you 
identify a single component which has caused the performance difference? 
I will download some different versions of thunderbird to see whether 
the problem is with thunderbird, but if anyone knows the answer already 
then please say so.
