Description Carsten Jensen 2014-10-19 11:56:58 UTC 
I just upgraded from Gimp 2.8.10 to 2.8.14 on Win7 x64

The image manipulation interface seems to be much slower than before (not menus etc).

here's an example

1. make a selection with the selection tool

from the first click to being able to make a box is noticable long, I count 2 seconds.
The update of the frame is slow too.



2. Use the pencil, click to set the first marker. use shift and see how the curser (not mouse pointer) seems to drag slowly.


I think all the slowness I experience are the same (matter of screen update)

Please have a look at bug 736411 and check if you are seeing the same symptoms.
Comment 2 Carsten Jensen 2014-10-24 13:01:18 UTC 
it looks to be the same, except I only use a mouse.

I can't test resizing the screen as I've gone back to 2.8.10
I can mention though that I'm working in the single screen mode (no floating toolbars)

I used the torrent download and downloaded around a week ago, so I guess it was the setup-1.exe version being used.

as far as I remember the dragging also went on in a default new image, but I can't say for sure now.
Comment 3 Michael Schumacher 2014-10-24 14:22:49 UTC 
A slow-down triggered by the position update code in rulers would be noticeable with all input devices, more so the more events they create - and tablets usually do.
Comment 4 Michael Schumacher 2014-10-28 13:26:16 UTC 
If the slowdown is gone temporarily when you disable the rulers (in the view menu), then it is most likely a duplicate.
Comment 5 Michael Schumacher 2014-12-26 14:00:07 UTC 
Assuming duplicate.
