gnomefreakwhy doesnt ddebs repos have multiverse or restricted debugging packages (are they strickly built with the package as a rule?10:44
=== asac_ is now known as asac
gnomefreakanother stupid question. why did i just hear firefox is going to beable to add repos to sources.list file (it would need root adn running firefox as root is bad15:59
gnomefreakasac: fta2 adding this to address apt://ubuntu-restricted-extras will cause another app to start to allow you to edit sources.list file do you know about this and what app is it :(16:13
Volansgnomefreak: from "ps fax" ->  /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/apturl apt://ubuntu-restricted-extras16:15
gnomefreakthought it was apturl16:15
Volansthis is the script that show me an alert box with the text: install additional software? and it is not localized the message itself16:16
gnomefreakno but it is apturl that is running it16:17
stek79_Hi guys, is there anyone willing to speak about Firefox 3 performance?18:41
gnomefreakstek79_: not likely today (im trying to get out for the day) and noone else is really here other than Volans and i think hes workiong on something else atm18:43
VolansI'm there if needed stek79_ but I don't have made any FF3 performance test18:44
stek79_hello guys! It's the first time for me here on ubuntu channels18:44
stek79_first of all let me say congrats for the great work18:45
stek79_I would like to speak about a bug we have on launchpad, regarding ff3 slowness in gmail18:45
Volanswhat bug? just tell bug number18:46
stek79_I made some performance tests, as you can see in the bug 21758018:46
ubottuLaunchpad bug 217580 in xulrunner-1.9 "Slow performance with Gmail" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/21758018:46
stek79_yes18:46
Volansthere is a fix committed as I see...18:47
stek79_as I stated in the thread, I'm willing to try to take some measurements and track this down18:47
stek79_I have hardy updated but the slowness is still there, as you can see also from other reports18:48
stek79_basically my CPU goes to 100% during a simple scrolling18:48
stek79_50% is taken by FF18:48
stek79_the other 50% by Xorg18:48
stek79_as you can see from my top measuerements18:48
Volansmmmh at first sight is not a simple trick and I see that asac have worked on it, I think that is better if you talk with him, usually he is there on working day for many hours18:49
stek79_perhaps we can use a profiler to track this down?18:49
gnomefreakfix commited doesnt mean it is fixed it just means its being worked on for most part18:49
Volansgnomefreak: I have read that now that the fix doesn't work for all18:50
stek79_yes, Alexander worked on this issue18:50
gnomefreakits possible18:50
gnomefreakstek79_: is this the classifer bug?18:50
* gnomefreak looks18:51
stek79_no, the url.classifier bug is related to great IO activity, I have had this bug too but now up to me this is fixed18:52
gnomefreaklets put it this way LP bug should not be set to fix commited since upstream hasnt fixed it yet18:52
stek79_no more slowdowns regarding that bug18:52
gnomefreakwho set it to fix commited18:52
stek79_I don't know, can we discover that?18:52
gnomefreakasac: did you patch fro upstream on that?18:52
gnomefreakstek79_: i foud out18:52
gnomefreakfound*18:53
* gnomefreak wonders if he just picked a patch and applied it and tested in small area18:53
stek79_what did you found?18:53
gnomefreakstek79_: are you sure its the same bug?18:54
gnomefreakyou are seeing dots or dashes?18:54
gnomefreakhi [reed]18:54
gnomefreakLooks like dashed borders are no better than dotted ones. This page has a lot18:54
stek79_sorry gnomefreak, I can't understand what you say18:54
gnomefreakof long dashed borders, while a major border rewrite bug is slow scrolling with18:55
gnomefreaklong dotted borders.18:55
gnomefreakthat is the bug is that what you are seeing?18:55
[reed]hi, gnomefreak18:55
gnomefreakif not you dont have same bug18:55
stek79_mmm perhaps is that one, how can I make sure?18:55
gnomefreakafaik the dashes and dots on boarders is gone18:55
gnomefreakstek79_: read the upstream bug and see if you have same dots and dashes18:56
gnomefreakhttps://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42233018:56
ubottuMozilla bug 422330 in Layout "Slow scrolling performance with dotted or dashed borders" [Normal,New]18:56
gnomefreakthat is easy way to tell18:56
stek79_ok, I'm going to read it and let you know18:56
gnomefreakbut just slow on gmail is not the same and there are many causes to this18:56
gnomefreakgmail being the biggest cause18:56
gnomefreakgoogle domain not just gmail18:56
stek79_this is a good point: there are some sites where the performance is slow. Gmail is the one I use the most, but other users have reported other sites also that were really slow ( I tried them myself )18:57
stek79_perhaps is related to this bug, let me read it18:57
gnomefreakstek79_: gmail hasnt updated for ff3.0 that i am aware of18:58
gnomefreakgoogle18:58
gnomefreakdamnit i have to stop saying gmail18:58
armin76gmail18:58
gnomefreaksome of the sites have updated support but some are still issues so it may not be googles fault now18:58
stek79_I don't know if it helps, but FF3 on win XP works good18:59
stek79_fast everywhere and no CPU spikes on gmail19:00
gnomefreakstek79_: no way too different of a build19:00
gnomefreakits been so long im not even sure what xp uses to draw X19:01
stek79_ok, I read some bug posts on the upstream bug19:01
stek79_I don't know if this is the problem that we're facing, I don't see dotted or dashed lines on gmail19:02
stek79_have you every used it?19:02
gnomefreakthan its not same bug. either bug was marked wrong or its the same and your seeing a different bug19:03
gnomefreakhave i ever used what?19:03
stek79_gmail, do you have an account?19:03
gnomefreakif gmail i have 8 or 9 gmail addresses19:03
gnomefreakso i would say yes but i dont use the UI for it most of time19:03
stek79_don't you see slowdowns during scrolling with CPU spikes?19:03
gnomefreakthats why they made evo thunderbird outlook so you dont have to go to 8 or 9 pages to get mail19:04
stek79_it is enough to scroll the index page, with mouse wheel19:04
stek79_ok :)19:04
gnomefreakstek79_: with 800+ a day in one box and 500+ a day in another i would never use the ui19:04
gnomefreaktake too damn long to scroll anywya19:04
gnomefreakanyway19:04
stek79_I understand...19:04
stek79_there were some other sites reported, let me see if I can find one19:05
stek79_that bug had also a duplicate (or a first part), some posts are on the other one I think19:05
gnomefreakstek79_: there are alot of slow scrolling bugs in LP on firefox319:05
* gnomefreak gone for day i did my hardy work for the week19:06
stek79_ok, many thanks for the help19:07
* Volans gone for dinner... maybe come back later19:43
* kgoetz removes FF2 from his dev list, an focuses on 3.x20:01
