GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 60972
gnome-terminal redraws are slow
Last modified: 2003-02-09 02:49:18 UTC
Redraws in gnome-terminal over a network connection are extremely slow. This is easily produced by using a slow network connection, or enabling a background image. On a normal desktop, this can also be reproduced by using opaque window movement and watching the clunky redraw in a gnome-terminal session. This behaviour appears to be present in all versions of gnome-terminal.
If someone sends me a patch that fixes this (properly) by Friday, I'll send them $500.
I guess this is still a problem with gnome 2.0.x
bug 96879 is related, but doesn't address the issue of network usage.
Because of the release of GNOME 2.0 and 2.2, and the lack of interest in maintainership of GNOME 1.4, the gnome-core product is being closed. If y0u feel your bug is still of relevance to GNOME 2, please reopen it and refile it against a more appropriate component. Thanks...
Argh. Apologies for the double spam. Actually closing this time.
