I have identified a change between gtk 2.4 and gtk 2.8 which has an
impact on gtkperf results, specifically the first test GtkEntry.
The change is the addition of am idle handler in do_theme_change in
gtkicontheme.c.
This has the effect that the cost of doing the theme change is charged
to the first test when running gtkperf in automated mode, i.e. with -a
option as the idle handler is not called until the first test has started.
I think that the solution to this is to start the tests in an idle
handler, i.e. a patch on the lines of
