Hi Phil and Pedro: Please look at the commit message for af41765, and the corresponding part of the source code (lines 1537-1548 of drivers/wxwidgets_dev.cpp). I cannot spot anything between those two uses of the PLPLOT_wxLogDebug macro that would cause the 13-second pause that shows up on the timestamps (and also I could see that obvious pause myself when staring at those messages), so the conclusion I drew in the commit message was it had to be wxPLDevice::SetupMemoryMap() or wxLogDebug itself (that routine is called as a result of executing the PLPLOT_wxLogDebug macro) that was being suspended by something else going on with our wxwidgets code or the wxwidgets library that has nothing to do with the code in question. Is that even possible? Could this 13-second "suspension" be the result of some weird threading issue?
After reading the above 12 lines of code, will both of you please take the few minutes to replicate this same test on some Linux box following the exact instructions in the above commit message? I know one other wxwidgets user (Laurent?) has replicated the long pause on Linux, and I think Phil may have replicated it as well. But this time you will have detailed timestamped debug messages, and maybe given that evidence the light will dawn with one of you about what is really going on here. There sure isn't any such "dawn" here! Your totally confused fellow PLplot developer, Alan __________________________ Alan W.
