I'm working on an OpenLaszlo application that has a lot of controls for data input.
When I load our app up in a browser and check the memory use for that browser instance in task manager, it's around 100 megs. Obviously this is WAY too large and something has to be done to bring the size down. After some digging, it appears that the majority of our apps memory use is due to combo boxes. LOTS of comboboxes. The combobox is critical to our application so we need a solution that brings the memory use for comboboxes way down. Also, a side effect of this bloat is that anything that dynamically manipulates the contents of a combobox like adding or removing items, or refreshing the list when connected to a dataset, is unusably slow in our application. I know there was some work done on a "newcombobox" but it appears that that might have been abandoned in favor of the "datacombobox" which doesn't really address the bloat problem. Can anyone tell me what, if anything, can be done to remedy our situation? My co-worker is putting together and will post an example that specifically addresses the performance problems when manipulating comboboxes but I just wanted to query the list about a solution to the larger problem of application bloat due to comboboxes. Is it possible to strip down the combobox and/or textlistitem to make them less memory hungry? ...
