Version 2.1.2.0 is much slower on XP than version 2.0.0.0 #161

Closed secondcor521 closed 10 years ago

secondcor521 commented 11 years ago

I've been happily using version 2.0.0.0 for a while now both at work and at home.

I had to rebuild my home PC so I downloaded version 2.1.2.0. It is noticeably slower to perform basic tasks such as adding items, deleting items, postponing items, and completing items. In 2.0.0.0, these tasks take a fraction of a second; in 2.1.2.0 these tasks take up to a few seconds.

Home system is Windows XP.

Hi, Thanks for the bug report. As far as I'm aware nothing major has changed that should affect performance, but of course it's possible.

To isolate the change somewhat, can you please:

Cheers,

Ben

Ben,

2.0.0 is definitely quicker.

In 2.1.2, I added a new item "test item due:today", and then deleted it.  The add item took about 6 seconds and the delete took about 6 seconds.  (The confirm delete dialog popped up immediately; it was the actual delete that took ~6 seconds.)

In 2.0.0, I did the same thing, and both the add and delete took about half a second.

In both cases, I had my todo.txt file on my local hard disk, and sorted by date.  My todo.txt file is 564 lines long at the moment.

Now that I have 2.0.0 again, I'm set.

Thanks,

Robert   Robert M. Ring (208) 371-4010

Thanks for the testing Robert. Glad you're sorted with 2.0. I'll see if I can look into the changes since then to see what might be causing the issue in later versions.

Cheers,

Ben

Ben,

Sure.  No worries if you don't investigate it fully if I'm the only one reporting the issue.

I suspect you don't have a large XP install base :-)   Robert M. Ring (208) 371-4010

I'm unlikely to get the time to look into this. As some point (perhaps for 3.0) we'll move to .NET 4.5 which will mean that XP is no longer supported.
