Hi all, I recently changed to OmniBrowser (used to use RefactoringBrowser), and is great stuff, but i found it very slow... Is there others with the same feeling or it's just me?
btw, i'm using squeak VM 3.9 on ubuntu feisty
Cheers, Esteban

Yes, it's slow for me.... I'm using gentoo, v.39/v3.10
I love the features of the OmniBrowser, and was using it for a couple of weeks. I had to stop using it because it was very slow; but worse, it may have a memory leak.
Let me explain. As I continued to use the browser my image size got much bigger, even after invoking Smalltalk garbageCollect. I can't be sure this is due to the browser; but since I switched back to the regular browser I have no such problem. Of course, I'm doing lots of things, so it could be a coincidence...

Did you use a Squeak-dev image? It may be due to DynamicProtocols. Have a look at the preferences browser and deactivate them.
Would be cool if some people here helped us accelerate OB.
Deactivating DynamicProtocols speeds OB a lot (although it can be better, i think) Thanks Damien!

I'm responsible for DynamicProtocols. I'm not sure why you thank me :-)

I would be interested to know what kind of hardware you use? On my hardware I have never noticed serious performance problems using the newest version of OB. I use Intel Core 2 Duo Macs and a Windows P4 system.
