Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. view calendar with many events one week, zero events the following week 2. view > workweek days only off 3. time how long it takes to go from zero event week to full week 4. view > workweek days only on 5. time how long it takes to go from zero event week to full week Actual Results: Displaying only workweek days takes ~50% longer For example, ~6 sec showing all days, ~9 seconds showing workweek days only. Expected Results: Displaying only workweek days should take equal or less time.

(patch -l -p 2 -i file.patch) Diagnosis: calendar-decorated-week-view.goToDay was causing calendar-multiday-view.refresh to be called twice when workweek days only are displayed. calendar-decorated-week-view.goToDay calendar-multiday-view.setDateRange calendar-multiday-view.refresh calendar-decorated-week-view.removeNonWorkdays calendar-multiday-view.setDateList calendar-multiday-view-refresh This fix moves the calculation of workdays into setDateRange, so refresh is only called once. (multiday-view already has daysOffArray, so this is simpler than the old code: removeNonWorkdays is not needed, doesn't need to recompute days-off from prefs.) (Future: after this patch, removeNonWorkdays is not used by any view, so calls to it and methods for it may be removed from all views.)

Most of this is just style.

(patch -l -p 2 -i file.patch) Nits addressed, comments added. Responding to the review: 1. The calDateTime objects passed into the method were not modified, so callers could have reused the parameters. But as requested, bound to new variables instead. 2. The variables bound to the arguments were rebound to the normalized form (normalized to the display timezone), so the unnormalized version would no longer be available. Adding a variant name to the namespace to keep the unnormalized datetime around may lead to further errors, since someone could make a change that uses the unnormalized datetime where the normalized version should be used. So added code to assign the unnormalized variables to null. 3. The "this function needs to be smarter" comment refers to the "refresh" method call. That comment has been there since version 1.1, so from the name of the file, it is probably meant for a view that doesn't yet exist, e.g., a 3 day view that advances by one day at a time, so there is significant overlap between the old view and the next and refresh could reuse existing box layout. The only case currently where there is any overlap in the dates is when switching weekview between all-weekdays and workdays-only, a relatively rare operation which doesn't need to be optimized at this time. (Other removeNonWeekdays methods deleted in separate patch forthcoming)

Comment on attachment 247273 [details] [diff] [review] v3: move workweek days calculation to multiday-view so it refreshes just once (v2 nits addressed) + // make sure unnormalized version not used below + aStartDate = aEndDate = null; This seems like unnecessary protection. The comments above indicate which variables should be used. + // Use array.some for array.contains I don't understand this comment at all. + function isDayOff(aQueryDay) { + return kWeekdaysOffArray.some(function isQueryDay(aDayOff) { + return aQueryDay == aDayOff; + }); + } Why not just if (this.mDaysOffArray.indexOf(d.weekday) != -1) That'd be cleaner, and I think the performance difference would be very close to 0, since you have to declare fewer variables.

(patch -l -p 2 -i file.patch) Good catch --- I forgot indexOf was added to JavaScript at the same time as some. This patch fixes that and also converts a previous use of some to indexOf for marking weekend attributes. (I disagree that comments are enough of a deterrent against using the unnormalized dates, since the point of the convention of not modifying 'aXxx' parameter bindings [required by first-review] seems to be that people shouldn't have to read all the code between the top of the method and the use in order to use the parameter, so they won't read the comments in between either. Also, such in-between code is often omitted from patches, so reviewers may easily miss it. So I left nulling the unnormalized parameters in this patch.)
