Hi,
I was looking at the "implement batch requests in GConf" item on the
login time wiki page which states:
"Everyone uses gconf_client_add_dir ("/apps/my-app", PRELOAD_RECURSIVE).
However, this actually works by getting a list of keys, and then
querying the value for each key. This means that we have a lot of
roundtrips to the GConf daemon."
However, looking at the implementation of gconf_client_add_dir it looks
like it actually recurses each dir and calls all_entries() to get all
the keys and values for that dir at once. Furthermore, the suggested
batch_lookup() API needs a list of keys to query which would make it
more expensive than the current all_entries() method.
Does this item contain old information, or am I misunderstanding
something?
