From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.5 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020712 Description of problem: hello and thanks for Limbo, a quantum leap. gnome-terminal seems slow to respond, i.e. when opening a new tab or if I run a binary in the terminal, with multiple tabs open, the mouse drags along, very slow, unlike gnome-terminal in 7.3 stable or multi-gnome-terminal, stable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Open gnome-terminal in Limbo, along with multiple tabs 2.execute a binary in one of the tabbed terminals, or two 3.try to type something in a tabbed terminal that is idle Actual Results: keyboard response and mouse response is extremely slow, it seems, when cpu usage is high, unlike other programs opened at the same time, gtk+ and GNOME 2.0 Expected Results: smooth response with mouse and keyboard in gnome-terminal, also, note, I'm using a transparent background with it, witht he default wallpaper, which is beautiful. Additional info:
this is probably a dup report...
This should be fixed in vte 0.7.1 and later, where the processing priorities were sorted out and made more consistent.
I'm not seeing anything like this with vte-0.8.10-1, so closing out.
