Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-panel
The gnome panel has a clock applet that displays a clock on any panel,
in several different display modes. When clicked, the clock displays a
calendar view of the current month, with the 'today' date selected.
The problem is that the display is slow. The first time I open the
calendar in a session, it takes several seconds to display the window.
After that, it's a bit better, but it still takes around a second to
show the calendar window. It takes about a second to hide it, too. This
on a Centrino Duo with hardly any CPU load...
It's not a show-stopper by any means, but it creates a very strong
sensation of unresponsiveness. I also have the impression that the
first, longer, delay actually freezes the panel for a few seconds, but
since it only happens once per session I can't tell with certainty.
Considering that things like Gaim display their much larger window
without any noticeable delay, this is a bit embarrassing.
(This is on freshly-updated Ubuntu Feisty.)
