Hi,

My team is planing a RAP based solution and one thing I noticed while
evaluating RAP is that performance is worst on IE (7 in this case). This is
mostly noticeable with the progressbar widget, where the progress takes a
lot longer to complete in IE using the exact same code.
My question is: is this due to IE js implementation or are there any
optimizations possible.
This is somewhat important for our solution as our primary target platform
is Windows/IE7.

Thanks.

Tiago

Hi Tiago,

we are aware of this problem and currently working on it. From what we
know it is due to the IE JavaScript implementation. We already gained
some performance improvements (not yet in CVS) but hope to further
improve the situation.
If you have any input on what could improve the JavaScript performance
on IE, feel free to share.

Cheers,
Rüdiger

Hi Rüdiger, My application runs well (more or less) in Firefox 2.x and
IE 7 (A bit faster in Firefox) but in IExplorer 6 goes so slowly that
It's impossible to work with it.

Are you working to improve IE6 performance or only in IE7 ?

Regards.
Roberto.

Roberto,

we currently focus on IE 7 performance. IE 6 will surely benefit
thereof, but at least until 1.0 (due 2007-09-28) we won't have time to
pay special attention on IE 6.
If you want to give it a try, you can check out the latest from CVS. We
checked in the changes yesterday.

Cheers,
Rüdiger

Hi Rüdiger, I've updated with CVS latest version and I've found 2 problems:

In IE 7 appears 2 Javascript errors when index.html is loaded, I have a
Login dialog that isn't shown.

Line: 1588
Character: 3
Error: It was espected a variable, string or number (Original message in
Spanish: Se esperaba un identificador, una cadena o un número)

Line: 12808
Character: 9
Error: 'org' is not defined.

In Firefox (under Mac OS) all works fine, there is no errors, but there
is a problem with TreeItems (I don't know if it is related with this,
but yesterday there was no problem), The problem is that the item text
size is too short and It can't be shown correctly, I've tested RAP demo
app and the problem appears here too.

I'll create a bug ASAP.


Regards.

Roberto

I've created 2 bugs entries:

For javascript problem in IE7:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201532

For tree item issue: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=201531

Both problems can be reproduced in RAP demo app.

Regards.
Roberto.

Now, where version 1.0 is out I like to ask whether this performance
issue under IE6/7 has been solved?

Performance is much better now with IE7, but there is still room for
improvement. The qooxdoo team is also working on improving performance,
both startup and rendering. But even with a fully optimized RAP and
qooxdoo IE6 will remain a mediocre execution environment for Ajax apps.
