GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 256970
Delay in opening contacts-addressbook.
Last modified: 2013-09-10 14:03:17 UTC
Description of Problem: I m using evolution1.5.6 with ximian-connector installed on it. When I tried to open the address book of local machine or exchange account it will come after fraction of time. We can see the message "There are no items to show in this view. Double click to create a new contact". Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Start evolution. Go to contacts. 2. Click on any address book. 3. First it will show the above mentioned message for fraction of time and then the contacts detail will be displayed. Actual Results: It will delay a bit before showing contact details. Expected Results: There should not be any delay. How often does this happen? Everytime Additional Information: Only first time it will happen. Afterwards it wont delay.
Please add some timing. "Little delay" may be too subjective.
May be almost one second.
so basically the bug is that we shouldn't display this text? easy enough to fix.
Basically this bug says that there should not be any delay in showing all contacts... Not that it should not show the message.
One second response time seems pretty logical for me. Up to 3 seconds is reasonable for a standard user before he/she thinks something is wrong.
chris, the bug about not displaying this text is bug 228725 (targetted to 2.1). these two bugs are strongly related, so i'll add comments to both of them. - if this one gets solved it should be very easy to solve bug 228725 also.
going to close this bug and mark it as a duplicate of 28725, since there's no actual hard time requirement spec'ed anywhere, and we load things as fast as the code (and corba) allow us to. the one portion of the bug that's actually fixable without being open to subjectivity is already contained in 28725. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 228725 ***
