Description Adam Kiezun CLA 2002-12-12 08:51:41 EST
Task ist still updates itself (thus consuming 10% of build time sometimes)
although i have it open in a resource perspective, which i have hidden under my 
current java perspective

The alternative is to avoid updating the tasks view incrementally when hidden.  
However, this would require a full refresh when it is shown, which can be very 
expensive.  Usually this tradeoff only makes sense when the cost of a full 
refresh is low.

Adding my name to the cc list as we are now tracking performance issues more
closely. Please remove the performance keyword if this is not a performance bug.
Comment 4 Mike Wilson CLA 2005-04-21 12:05:20 EDT
Presumably, you could turn off refresh if you could tell the table really isn't visible (since it would need 
to be refreshed completely when it is made visible anyway). Are widgets in hidden perpsectives made 
invisible? Should they be?
Comment 5 Stefan Xenos CLA 2005-04-21 23:09:54 EDT
Right now the tasks view does a full refresh anyway after each build. We should
be able to turn it off when it's invisible and just record if it's dirty... in
fact, we could probably save a good chunk of memory if we clear its entire
contents  if it's invisible and dirty.
Comment 6 Nick Edgar CLA 2005-04-22 10:44:00 EDT
I thought the full refresh was still done incrementally.  If you clear it, it
will be expensive when shown.

But deferring the refresh sounds good.
Should suffice to track partVisible changes.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
