Hi Christian,
We recently added tomboy-latex to Debian, and a user has reported a bug
against it[0] which is an upstream issue:
"With larger notes tomboy (with LaTeX-plugin enabled) becomes really
slow. I can often type whole sentences without any feedback from
tomboy (no cursor movement, no charachters appearing, and tomboys
windows don't redraw if I drag another window over it). When I'm
finished typing and wait for about 30-60 seconds, the typed stuff will
appear all at once. My impression is that there is some O(n^2)
behaviour there, where n is either the total size of the note or the
number of equations in it."
I checked the source and it does indeed seem to scan over the whole
document whenever the user moves the cursor. This seems to be the
source of the slowdown.
Regards,
Iain
