Hi Borys
I need to FAST put ANY labels to see what is in polygons.
Couldn't you just use 'around center' then? Afaik the old labeling
engine also does placement just on polygon centroid.
If the label has to be inside the polygon (horizontal and free placement
mode):
The problem here is not the collision detection. It is the calculation
of cost for the candiated positions that takes most of the time. I have
an open pull request that simplifies the approach and increases speed
(https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/pull/640). Still it is of course
slower than centroid placement, but the middle point of the label
position is guaranteed to be inside the polygon.
To improve the speed of label drawing (especially with buffer), I'm
working on a label cache (characters cached as images). But that one is
too risky for 2.0 and I still need to do various bugfixes before
publishing it.
Regards,
Marco

The only thing I *REALLY* miss in the new labelling is an optional FAST method
to put labels just in poligon centroids with ommiting any expensive collision
algorithms. When just browsing data the speed is priority, I don't need
beautiful map, I need to FAST put ANY labels to see what is in polygons.
Unless it's not available in the new labelling, we make a regression, removing
one of the most fundamental features. Please correct me if I'm missed some PAL
option that I can disable to achieve a significant boost.

What is the status ? Are we going to keep a deprecated label tab for the
next 3 years ?

Can we finally remove the old label UI from the layer properties dialog?
Could we remove it by default and just enable it for old project that
have old labels defined.
