Bug 169845 Mac OS X SWT: extremely slow behavior of Table with larger numbers of items
Reported: 2007-01-08 10:54:00 | Status: resolved fixed

Build ID: I20061214-1445 Steps To Reproduce: 1.Modify Snippet38 to have count = 5000 2.Run it 3.On Linux, for example, it takes about 5 seconds for the initial window to come up, which is acceptable, but on Mac OS X it takes 9 full minutes. Tests performed on reasonably recent hardware. Tested using SWT drops: I20061214-1445 and M20060921-0945 on intel hardware. More information: I understand that virtual tables have better performance, but we have a large working app using normal tables (and many of them) that runs fine on all platforms except Mac OS X, due to this issue. Thanks in advance for your help.
