Description Tim Lebedkov 2006-02-01 19:24:47 UTC

moving and deleting bookmarks takes up to 10 seconds
Comment 1 Daniel Teske 2006-02-01 19:31:31 UTC
How many bookmarks do you have?
The fastest way to count would be to execute this command from a konsole:
grep "<bookmark .kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml | wc -l
Comment 2 Tim Lebedkov 2006-02-01 19:38:57 UTC
1838
Comment 3 Daniel Teske 2006-02-01 20:01:43 UTC
That shouldn't be slow, is there anything special with your home directory?
Comment 4 Tim Lebedkov 2006-02-01 22:43:28 UTC
Special?
Comment 5 Tim Lebedkov 2006-02-01 22:43:59 UTC
Special?
Comment 6 Ian 2006-12-17 02:40:00 UTC
Confirming: terribly slow deletion and dragging (and dropping) around bookmarks/folders. OK, dragging takes typically less than 4 seconds; deletion is much slower and _very_ annoying. 

I've ~2,500 bookmarks. When nearing 3,000 it does crawl so badly that it's hardly usable.

Hmm, since Daniel asks, I do notice both high (ie, choked) CPU and disk I/O while dragging stuff around. Could be thrashing? (ie, much slower the first time; I've 512MB, 1.8GHz Athlon.) Nah, feels like algorithmic inefficiency (to put it nicely) to me.

Special? I did move and symlink ~/.kde/share/apps/konqueror/bookmarks.xml to a different partition. Shouldn't make any difference once the file is open.

Version: KDE 3.4.3, Kubuntu 5.10.

Oops, this bug seems like a duplicate of 111564:

Please merge them.
Comment 8 Jean-Philippe Fleury 2009-02-03 02:18:16 UTC
Or a duplicate of bug 59401 (that seems to have more activity)?
Comment 9 David Faure 2009-11-17 21:22:25 UTC
Do you have the "unknown" icon on most bookmarks (due to icon="www" in the xml)?
If so, I just fixed this for KDE 4.4.0.
Comment 10 David Faure 2009-11-17 21:27:00 UTC
Reply to #8: bug 59401 is about the slowness of _adding_ bookmarks from within konqueror, this is totally unrelated to the bookmark editor program.
