Technically the application *is* not responsive, it is not running the main loop and is not processig events for prolonged periods. This is a side effect of bad design and too much processing that is performed inside event handlers. I talked with Mvo and am in progress of working on a proof-of-concept rewrite of the backend/processing to be asynchronous. I'll be posting updates to this bug report.
Side note: there are many separate places that need fixing. The one visible here could also be related to gtk treeview performance. -- software-center is not responsive when navigating application list using keyboard arrows (up/down) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/556290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
