[Bug 1260980] Re: activity and bookmarks functionality is too slow

 

I guess this is very dependent on the number of entries in the history.
Maybe the size of thumbnails plays its part in the general slowness
feeling.

Bookmarks shouldn’t be slow, it’s only one gridview. But I just realized
that both views (activity and bookmarks are always loaded, instead of on
demand).

Title:
  activity and bookmarks functionality is too slow

Status in Web Browser App:
  Confirmed
Status in “webbrowser-app” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is not a regression (I'm only just now filing this).

  If I open the webbrowser-app and press 'Activity' from the bottom
  toolbar, it can take several esconds (5-10) for the activity tab to
  display. Once it does, scrolling up and down is painfully slow. Left
  to right scrolling with a category (This year, This month, etc) is
  acceptable. The performance of Activity seems to be aggravated by the
  number of items in the activity. Eg, if I remove ~/.cache/webbrowser-
  app and ~.local/share/webbrowser-app, then performance is improved.

  Accessing bookmarks is also very slow-- you have to go through
  Activity to access them, and then clicking the Bookmarks tab takes
  several seconds to display. Vertical scrolling seems better in
  Bookmarks than in Activity and is usable with the number of bookmarks
  I have, but the performance is somewhat sluggish and could be
  improved.

  This is on mako on latest promoted trusted image (58).
