I can reproduce this on non-linux platforms. It seems that Qt is best tailored to Linux and Windows as I also experience other slownesses. For example, the file dialog opens almost instantaneously on Linux and Windows but, starting from Qt 4.3, it is unbearably slow on Solaris. If you have a lot of files and you open the file dialog, you can go and have a coffee before all files are displayed. In this respect, Qt 4.2.3 is the last version really usable. Maybe this is due to that FilesystemWatcher thing. -- Enrico
