Yesterday for the first time I tried live-update effect on a large slow document (about 1Mb with lots of blur etc). It was a torture. I could not even adjust the number of paragraphs because it froze on every change for a long time.
Yes, I can see that.
What would everyone think about changing the XML parser to run queued GTK events ever 100 or so nodes? It would make loading SVG files slightly slower (most of the time there'd be no events) but it might make the application appear more responsive (when loading in general also, not just for scripted effects). Thoughts?
Sorry for pounding on it, but I think I've proven enough by now that the checkbox must be there and off by default :)
Well, I'm planning on putting the checkbox and the status in -- I'm hoping they'll be so excellent that we can discuss the default state a little after that :)
It will take a little bit though, there's some messy context stuff that might cause me to restructure stuff slightly. :(
