GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 538682
Using collection to find the previous object on a large page in FF3 is quite slow

This is a blocking/tracking bug for the following at-spi bug: Bug 538680: collection.getMatchesTo() seems to ignore the count After adding some debugging code into Orca I discovered that when we use collection.getMatchesFrom() to get the next x objects, we get at most x objects returned. But when we use collection.getMatchesTo() to get the previous x objects, we get all of the objects that match from the top of the document frame. On a page with lots of objects, especially lots of objects that might match, this number can be huge and it slows down structural navigation considerably. :-(
Yay! The AT-SPI bug is fixed. Closing our bug out since there's nothing else for us to do in Orca w.r.t. this issue. I guess it's not NOTGNOME since it was AT-SPI. So, I'll call it a dup. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 538680 ***
