Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/28744 Comment: This problem is really, really bad, if your machine is not screaming fast, it takes hours to upgrade 30 Gnome related packages. Upon further examination with strace, it seems that for *each package*, all the files in /var/lib/gconf/defaults/ get regenerated 20 or 30 times. Is it regenerating ALL the XML files for each file installed or something? There has GOT to be some potential for optimization here... I'm afraid to upgrade because pulling in a handful of Gnome packages will make my machine grind to a crawl for the rest of the afternoon.

Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/28744 Comment: Thanks for your bug. That's likely due to the switch to a merged tree. installation is slower but runtime faster. Some investigation to see if there is some optimization possible would be nice though -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 28744] gconftool-2 very slow
Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/28744 Comment: This problem is really, really bad, if your machine is not screaming fast, it takes hours to upgrade 30 Gnome related packages. Upon further examination with strace, it seems that for *each package*, all the files in /var/lib/gconf/defaults/ get regenerated 20 or 30 times. Is it regenerating ALL the XML files for each file installed or something? There has GOT to be some potential for optimization here... I'm afraid to upgrade because pulling in a handful of Gnome packages will make my machine grind to a crawl for the rest of the afternoon. I am afraid "very slow" is a significant understatement of the problem... -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have got a decently fast (1.5GHz CPU, 768MB of RAM) machine, which runs anything just fine/smoothly, but somehow Dapper recently started to take hours to install stuff, when it's reasonably fast under Breezy. Now it takes a lot more time to install packages, than it takes to download them ! :-/ -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/28744 Comment: no kidding; I feel it on my Athlon64 also, sometimes the Dapper updates take 30+ minutes to apply when they used to scroll by instantaneously.

Public bug report changed: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/28744 Comment: That's an issue but not trivial to fix. Sure it's annoying if you run daily dist-upgrade but that's an unstable distribution, you may want to keep using the current stable one if you don't want to face any such inconveniance. Contributions are welcome if somebody wants to spend some efforts working on that instead of spending them commenting on the users list about that by example -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
