Bug 78873 Combo box performance problem
Reported: 2004-11-17 14:05:41 | Status: resolved fixed

When adding items into a combo box , the performance slows way down , depending on the number of items added. For example when adding 900 items in a windows app , it takes ~0.3 seconds when adding only 700 in a linux app it taks ~45 seconds.
