* During package population, when the repository is being refreshed, thousands of package change messages arrive in MainWindow while the PackageInfo fields are filled with data. Every such message caused a full generation of a package list (including applying filters to all known packages), which is quite slow, and caused the freezing from bug #13823. The list was only used temporarily to figure out if the package should be visible now or not. * Instead of generating a new package list, we now only match the single updated PackageInfo against the current filters. * Fixes #13823 * To reduce CPU usage even more, it would be better to not generate at all, or not subscribe to, package changes while the list is being initially populated, and/or to coalesce all the changes to each package info into one update message (instead of one for title, one for prominence, etc). Deferring subscription requires some additional thought on when to subscribe then, and how to avoid leaving a "hole" where changes would go unnoticed. |

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku

Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
