[Bug 23630] New: do not scan all font metrics on application startup
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23630 Summary: do not scan all font metrics on application startup Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: gdi32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: jstpierre(a)mecheye.net With a good set of fonts, about 800-1200 families, wine is not very good at starting up fast, and it doesn't even respond to signals. The only way I've found to kill it is with a wineserver -k. I was told that wine currently scans font metrics on each application startup. I feel that this could be improved, either by scanning the information needed from the font file lazily or once, on wineserver start. Approximate time, it takes around 3-4 minutes for a cold start of winecfg before effects are visible. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
