Description Kuba Serafinowski 2010-04-03 21:18:57 UTC
Version:           2.3-GIT (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    openSUSE RPMs

When you change pattern in the dialog it stalls for a few seconds (about 6s for 3k tracks), on every character change.

I guess simple, yet great improvement fix/workaround would be to make it to wait 1 or more seconds to regenerate preview, instead of doing this real time. This way we could make a few changes at once, and that would be actually bearable ;-)

Confirmed in 2.4-GIT, it's still very slow.

Don't block the organizer dialog.

Process in batches instead.
