Has anyone noticed how much slower the folders seem to refresh. When starting dolphin on first time start up, I'm seeing the folders appear white and then turn blue as they are refreshing.
We did not see this in earlier version of KDE i.e openSUSE 11.4.
The Dolphin Part was completely rewritten for KDE SC 4.8/Dolphin 2.0.
And while I too have that cosmetic issue on startup, Dolphin 2 is a gazillion times faster than old Dolphin - saying anything else is just lies. --
No, it is not lies, I noticed a slowdown during the transition to the new rendering engine, especially in the rendering of context menus when multiple files are selected. I was not surprised by slowness during the transition, and once the new rendering system had stabized there was a significant increase in speed, Note, I have some directories with a very large number of files and sub directories. With the release of 4.9.2 (openSUSE 12.1) I again encountered a slowdown in directory listings as well as slowdowns in showing context menus when a large number of files are selected (+200 files). During the short period where it worked exceptionally well I could select as many as 1000 items and still have a very good response with context menus. (not instantaneous, but less than 1 second) Thank you Martin for dismissing Romans post with so little information, your response helped me to consolidate the information that I can use to submit or search for a bug report should I see no improvement in the next release. see ya dh -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
