66485 - 2001-01-24-mtest build response is very slow

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Backend, defect)

Description

[fenella]

Linux (2001-01-24-13 Mtest)
Both Ninoschka and I are seeing that the branch builds on Linux and window are 
very slow. 
For example:
It takes 3 seconds to load a message with one line of text
Scrolling takes a few second to respond
It takes 5-7 seconds to bring up the Compose window
Closing the Compose window takes 2-3 seconds for it to disappear. 
Clicking on newsgroup takes 3 seconds to load news

I have seen these problems in the trunk builds. See bug 66236. 
These problem should not be in the branch build.

Fenella,

The trunk builds are really slow, but the changes that caused that aren't on the
branch. Are you sure that you weren't using the trunk?

Comment 2

[Ninoschka Baca]

My branch build (6.01) is running much faster than the trunk build.

Ladies, 

Are you running a recommended, full, or custom installation?

Comment 4

[Scott MacGregor]

I'm pretty sure you don't have a tip build. The performance problems plaguing
the tip are not on the branch. It's running great for me. 

Nothing was checked into the branch either that would have caused this. 

Can you check your build dates again? 
Thanks!

Scott,
yes, I have checked the build dates. It is a netscape6/6.01 build

[fenella]

I can show you the performance in my computer.

Were you indeed using the the correct build?  If not, we should mark this VERIFIED.

I showed the performance to Scott P.  and compared it with Esther's machine.
This could be an isolate problem in my machine. Will investigate my machine's
performance. Verified this bug.
