--- Comment #85 from Stef Bon <stef...@gmail.com> --- Hi, it's a long time since I've looked at the problem. What has been changed since then? I saw that there is not a seperation between the default attributes like size, permissions and owner/group and c/mtimes, and more in depth information like mimetype, which require much more io. What I beleive I've mentioned before is that these lookup processes should be handled seperated: so some threads do the lookup of default attributes, and others do the determing of the mimetypes/icon etc. This can be done with different queues of "lookup" tasks, and when doing the lookups of mimetype.icon takes too much time, it can switch over to do a much more simple lookup by checking the extension for example. That saves a lot of io. But I've seen the code and it's horrible to do this imo. Stef -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
