Hello, Archlinux has now moved gnome 3 into stable and so I have upgraded my desktop to gnome 3. However I notice some extremely poor performance issues when using at-spi2 through dbus. One example is when opening thunderbird (3.3a2) and also when opening a message in thunderbird 3.3a2. In fact with the opening of a message, the performance is so bad, I don't know whether it is locking up or not as I have never actually got to read the message on my system (waited for over a minute).
ok, I just downloaded a nightly and tested with that since I'm not normally a thunderbird user as my mail headers tell you ;) I'm noticing some bad performance doing these things, but not nearly as bad as you describe, I have 750 messages, and thunderbird starts in maybe 30s and opening a message takes 15s (those numbers are my wild gues not timed at all). I don't really know but I suspect this will be improved a bit when at-spi2 start sending events over direct connections (this is something I've been meaning to look at doing).
If I set the gconf key to enable at-spi to use corba, the performance is back to what I am used to. There are other cases where at-spi2 through dbus seem to lock up, eg. when opening regional settings in gnome 3, epiphany, etc). Does anyone else notice these issues?
well, I don't have any of these apps installed, but I think I've noticed some random locking up. It smells vaguely like its related to keyboard events, but I have no reliable way to reproduce this. Trev
