Public bug reported: * Take the following simple example of a listview with an image. * run it with strace qmlscene * scroll the list to the bottom
When not including "import Ubuntu.Components 1.3" there is exactly one disk access to load the image open("/home/tsdgeos_work/test/face.png", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 19 When including "import Ubuntu.Components 1.3" there are around 500 disk access including stats for the file and listing the directory containing the file (see disk_access file). Also for each of those directory listings we're also creating and destroying the same QRegExp again and again. I understand that some of this overhead is needed since we have that thing that loads the best possible file for the given grid units, but doing it again and again for the same file seems a bit of overkill, maybe we could cache that? ** Affects: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1558663 Title: Ubuntu Components is hard on the disk and CPU when loading images To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1558663/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
