Slow refresh in tables?

Post by RickRST »

Is this normal? It seems to put a load on the laptop when the tables are displayed live. The 3d maps, gagues dont seem to slow anything.

I'm using a top spec dual core laptop under xp. is tunix dual core aware?

Rick.


PS - the new gauges are lovely, as is the ability to arrange all the windows how i want them :)

The 2D tables will pump up CPU load due to the color changing. It's a GTK+ thing, not a megatunix thing, thus there is no simple resolution. I already to a bunch of checks code wise to MINIMIZE gui updates (changing colors or text has a nasty cpu penalty in GTK+ thanks to pango, and some other design problems in GTK+)
