Description Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2009-05-07 15:52:38 EDT 
When you start with a fresh workspace, go to the Target Platform preference page and click Add... there is a noticeable lag.

Why?

We should profile this.
Comment 1 Curtis Windatt CLA 2009-05-07 15:57:14 EDT 
Probably slow because it has to load the templates from the extension registry.  We could do it lazily, only collecting the items for the combo when the fourth radio button is selected.
Comment 2 Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2009-05-07 16:00:36 EDT 
You think? It's about a 2 second lag on my really fast machine :/

Can we do this in the background? Or until the radio button is selected maybe?
Comment 3 Curtis Windatt CLA 2009-07-07 15:19:52 EDT 
Looks like its not the combo causing the lag.  Might be out of our control, just opening a wizard for the first time.  I'll run a profiler on it when I get a chance.
Comment 4 Curtis Windatt CLA 2009-08-31 14:49:49 EDT 
I haven't seen any lag problems and don't see anything unique that we are doing in the code.  Closing as WONTFIX.
