--- Comment #32 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2011-09-24 03:26:42 CDT --- For me, the responsiveness of the Steam client has been greatly improved with the latest Wine-1.3.29. This was caused by http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commit/ff2805cae00ebf854e2fd80c2a34af1...
Formerly there was a noticeable delay whether I typed in a textbox or simply scrolled through the available game list in the Library tab. The lag was also noticeable if I checked/unchecked an option in the Settings window. Now all these have gone in 1.3.29.
As for the chat window (maximized), prior to commit [ff2805cae00ebf854e2fd80c2a34af18e275180f] htop reported: Steam.exe 65 % Xorg 35 %
Now, in 1.3.29, htop reports: Steam.exe 55-65 % Xorg 6-8 %
I don't have Windows installed so I can't tell you how would Steam behave under native Windows on my machine. What I see is that the overall performance/responsiveness of the Steam client is much better now than before.
