Yes there's been progress: a whole GtkTreeModel has been implemented, as suggested in this bug. From now on, the browser doesn't reload every task at refresh. The improved code is already available in the trunk. However the bug cannot be closed now since several regressions must be adressed.

Status in Getting Things GNOME!: In Progress Bug description: Hey, I recently stumble upon GTG and liked it instantly. Unluckily I have now discovered (after filling 200+ taks via the quick add entry) that it is too slow to be used productively. - Filling the task on startup takes rather long. There should be nothing complicated to it... - Typing a word in the note name row freezes GTG for ~2seconds. The same applies for adding a tag by typing @.. - Filtering of tags takes ~1 seconds, but this should happen instantly I only had a short look at your code and saw threading, locking code and a refresh method. Is that really needed? Often in such simple applications pseudo threads via python generators and gobject.idle_add are more than sufficient. IMHO performance could be improved by several orders of magnitude if you use a proper GTKTreeModel. With this at hand you don't need to care about updating or redrawing your stuff. You should also consider wrapping your file/source abstraction in a custom GTKModel that yields the correct signals when required (not that difficult...) I haven't looked at what happends when you add a tag. But maybe you can only do (what ever you currently do) when I hit enter/linefeed or close the window.
