hi all
The subject is a little vague, so I'll try to be brief. I've brought
this up before, so I'll not repeat myself, or try not to. If any kind
of container, a list, table, icon pane, etc contains over a certain
number of items, orca's performance starts to suffer. The number seems
to be somewhere around 200. Below that, orca doesnt' lag at all. At or
above that, orca's performance worsens depending on how large the
container is. A good example is to open a folder in nautilus with over
200 items in it, /usr/bin should do it. Another one is to go into the
region and language settings in gnome shell, click on the "add input
source" button, and search for english. There should be around 500
results in there. Orca's performance lags, but is usable. But if the
number of items gets into the thousands, orca starts to lag heavily
and approaches an unusable level. Lol that sounded way too scientific
for me. I don't think this is an orca problem, but not sure. It could
be event flooding,  or an at-spi issue. I suspect at-spi, if only
because it's container agnostic. It doesn't matter whether it's a
list, table, tree view, icon pane ... you get the picture.  I'm not
complaining, just in a bit ofa hurry today, lots of last minute things
to do before the new sonar release.
Thanks
