** Also affects: gnome-software (Ubuntu Yakkety)
Importance: Medium
Status: Fix Committed
** Also affects: gnome-software (Ubuntu Xenial)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
- Changelog information is downloaded from changelogs.ubuntu.com. These
- must all be loaded before the updates tab is populated.
+ [Impact]
+ GNOME Software is slow to show anything when updates are available due to
downloading Changelog information.
- This is slow because:
- - Changelogs are downloaded for non-GUI packages (bug 1554166)
- - Changelogs are downloaded sequentially.
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Open GNOME Software when you have many updates to make and/or a very slow
connection to changelogs.ubuntu.com
- Downloading in parallel would speed this up significantly.
+ Expected result:
+ The home screen is quickly shown
+
+ Observed result:
+ The home screen takes many seconds to show
+
+ [Regression potential]
+ Low. We now just download these on demand.
