Is Salamander 2.52 beta 1 slower than 2.51?
Is Salamander 2.52 beta 1 slower than 2.51?
It seems that it's much slower than 2.51. Particularly, during enumerating directory content. Has anybody noticed this?

No, there it seems to it is the same as in 2.51 on my computer.roman2 wrote:It seems that it's much slower than 2.51. Particularly, during enumerating directory content. Has anybody noticed this?
AVG runs this Complete Test every time you start Windows (or maybe once a day, but that's all the same to me), which is slowing the system down a lot. It should present an icon in the tray when the test is running. Could that be it? Because I really think that real-time scanning can't be such a slow-down to be noticed (if it isn't a Pentium 1 computer ).
Ελληνικά rulez.
I only turned on the real-time scan recently, around the time I upgraded to Salamander 2.52 beta 1. That's why I think this is the reason. I saw a friend with an infected flash drive recently and decided to add more protection
ether, I've disabled daily scans a long time ago. And real-time checks are very noticeable even though I have a dual-core processor and 2 GB RAM.

I also noticed that 2.52 beta 1 sometimes freezes (mouse cursor moves, but the cursor shape does not change as it should, no keyboard reaction too) for 5 or 10 seconds, and the old version 2.51 didn't.
Something has changed, and Salamander is not as snappy anymore, which is a real pain, as the responsiveness of Salamander is one of its big advantages over e.g. Windows Explorer.
I noticed the freezing happening sometimes when changing folders (not big folders). But only sometimes. In folders that were no problem before.
Could it have something to do with Salamander is now updating the contents of panels when Salamander is not focused?
It has nothing to do with AVG Free, as I haven't changed anything in that installation.
I am using Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 32 bit with 2 GB RAM.

Jesper, if I understand you correctly, you can reproduce this problem in active instance of Salamander?
Could you please break the frozen instance of Salamander and send me generated bug report to jan.rysavy@altap.cz?
You will need to start two instances of Salamander 2.52 beta 1. In one choose the Help > Task List command, select other instance and move the Task list window aside, so you can quickly hit the Break button.
Then reproduce the problem in other instance and hit the prepared Break button.

Do you also notice 5-10 seconds delay, as Jesper? Could you please try to break it?roman2 wrote:It seems that it's much slower than 2.51. Particularly, during enumerating directory content. Has anybody noticed this?
