You just type in the search box and it goes off and gets the results. There's a slight delay from all the redraw work if there are a lot of hits, but you've all got blindingly fast CPUs these days, right?

(What this is.)

Very nifty!

*mumbly* Some of us have searingly, er, average Celeron D 2.6GHz processors, y'know... :P

Smells like a crap tree widget. It shouldn't really be having to do anything once it's got big enough you don't see it all on screen (except counting things up so it knows how big to make the scrollbar, I suppose.)

The tree layout code is home-grown (the built-in GTK+ stuff demanded I know the children of any given node on demand, but in fact I have to wait a network round trip to find out). Currently it figures out how big the whole layout is by creating the per-node widgets and then asking how big they are and adding it all up.

You seem to have the same banco de gaia CD twice there?

That's still fast, even if it's not the fastest thing on the market.
