Package: zathura
Version: 0.2.6-1
Severity: wishlist
Hello again,
I thought of another feature that it would be really great to have in
zathura: there should be an option to set a number of pages to
prefetch into the page cache.
Proposed name and description (for the man page) follow:
pages-prefetch
Defines the number N of pages (after and before the currently visible
one) that will be prefetched into the page cache. This ensures that
the page cache will always contain at least the currently visible
page, the next N pages, and the previous N pages. Values larger than
(page-cache-size - 1)/2 will be reset to this theoretical maximum.
· Value type: Integer
· Default value: 1
With this new feature, it would be possible to get rid of the rendering
delay that causes an unpleasant short blanking/flicker when the user
steps pages forward or backward (for instance, when showing a PDF
presentation...).
I hope this is feasible.
Please implement this feature and/or forward my bug report upstream.
Thanks again for your time!
Bye.
