[g-a-devel] Re: Enable accessibility by default in development releases?

[John Rice <John Rice Sun COM>]

Great stuff Padraig - down from +500% to 6% degradation when cat'ing a large file sounds pretty good to me :)

Anyone any idea of the effect of not flushing the pending events? Would it cause problems when typing quickly in the terminal? Problems in asian locales?

The problem seems to be that the function vte_terminal_process_incoming
causes the "text-inserted" signal to be emitted for what seems like
every character.

The attached patch cauwes about 6% degradation when cat'ing a large file
in gnome-terminal with accessibility enabled.
      

6% more degradation? 
    

no.

  

 Or do you mean that it improves the performance
to the point where accessibility-enabled gnome-terminal only has 6%
degradation relative to the performance of gnome-terminal without
accessibility enabled?

    

yes

  

It would be useful to know whether it has any impact on the accessibility
of gnome-terminal.

Actually, stuff like this makes me wonder if it's an additional reason
to turn accessibility on rather than a reason to keep it off.  It'll
help us find other little performance problems.  ;-)
