Comment # 2 on bug 1064133 from
Recoll developer Jean-Fran�ois Dockes was kind enough to respond to a personal
email regarding this issue.  He noted that Recoll uses a Webkit object to
display results, and suggested I consider building the program with the
--disable-webkit switch.

I looked at the documentation for building the program, and decided that this
effort would be beyond my skill level.  However, I tried another
troubleshooting step on my own: I installed Recoll under openSUSE Tumbleweed on
a portable computer with an integrated graphics controller, and indexed a copy
of the same drive (with 100,000+ files).

The results were identical to those described in the first two paragraphs of
this ticket: immediate display of number of hits, looong delays to show
results, and screen fragmentation.

The installation on the portable is _not_ in a virtual machine, and the
portable does not have an nvidia driver.

YAST2 in openSUSE indicates that I have libwebkit2gtk-4_0-37 installed, and
that libwebkitgtk-1_0-0 is available in the repository.

For now, I will continue indexing the drive with Recoll in the Linux Mint
virtual machine.
