I'm working on an RCP targeting Windows. It has become quite big, and some of the views are creating several hundred composites at a time, deeply nested and with complex layouts. I'm using lots of different elements, from wrapping labels to hyperlinks and image labels.
Building these can take between 500 and 1500ms, depending on the complexity. I can accept this performance, knowing that the structure is very complex although a web browser would be able to render it in an instance, wrapping and all.
What I'm wondering is is there anything I should know about creating big, complex GUIs with SWT and JFace that could possible make things go faster? For example, I've been investigating deferred layout, which I assume would help performance in my case. Is there a good guide to this somewhere on the web?
I also tried using TPTP to profile the application, but was unable to get it to work. Are there any profiling toolkits that are more targeted towards SWT specifically?
Thanks,
Torbjørn
