Description Crispin Flowerday (not receiving bugmail) 2006-02-09 22:27:06 UTC 
If you start gnome-background-properties and just hit cancel, it takes ages to dissappear, stracing it shows that it performs a 1.4 second sleep! Surely this isn't necessary, and if it can the dialogue be hidden first.

read(13, "GIOP\1\2\1\0\306\1\0\0", 12)  = 12
read(13, "\0004\321?\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\34\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\211h\250(\335"..., 454) = 454
nanosleep({1, 400000000},NULL)         = 0
gettimeofday({1139524068, 400548}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1139524068, 402808}, NULL) = 0
access("/usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ubuntu.png", F_OK) = 0
access("/usr/share/backgrounds/warty-final-ws-ubuntu.png", F_OK) = 0

I fail to see how this should be marked a dup of bug 327335, that bug talks about the possibility of reverting those changes if some patches make it to gtk and cairo, this bug is very particular, the sleep on cancel _needs_ to be removed if the new behaviour remains for the release.
