Description Dave Malcolm 2005-11-16 16:55:26 UTC 
Currently procedural.py does recursive searches for dialogs below applications.

In a bad case (e.g. searching for an evolution dialog) this will typically force
a full recursive search of every node in the main evolution window, before
searching in the dialog; this makes searches take ages and eat CPU.

I don't think dialogs can ever be anywhere except an immediate child of the
application; suggest that Focus.Application.dialog's findChild call should have
a recursive=False added to the args

Good idea. Fixed.
