JFace TableViewer/Table setitemcount() slow [message #989198]

Hi,
(I posted this topic already in the JFace-Section without any answers yet)
I use a virtual tableviewer in Eclipse RAP 1.5 to hold and display large datasets. After doing filter actions I set the itemcount to the new number of data rows which could be displayed. Now I noticed that when I decrease the number in setitemcount() from a large number above 80k to a much smaller number like 700 or so, the disposing of the items(even they were not visable) takes so much time that the user could think the application is frozen. Is this an RAP issue only, my fault or a common problem?

As a workaround I decrease the itemcount in small steps, which improves the performance a lot, but this should not the way to handle this scenario.

regards

Hi Mitch,
this is an interesting issue. Could you try to reproduce it with a plain
virtual Table (without TableViewer). This will eliminate the JFace code
and will allow as to track the issue down.
Best,
Ivan

Hi Ivan,

just had look at the TableTab from the Controls-Demo, its a plain virtual swt table if enabled - you can reproduce it easily there.

Regards

Hi Mitch,
you are absolutely right - there is a performance problem. I did a profiling with YourKit and it shows that most of the time is spent in Table#getHeaderHeight(). We should buffer header height and not query the themeing subsystem all the time. Please open a bugzilla about this issue.
Best,
Ivan
