Slow UI performance in multiple skins in XFCE
« on: September 20, 2020, 10:03:57 pm »

I'm using Media Center 26.0.107 and the interface is moving really slow in my VirtualBox VM of a Debian branch. I have a large library mainly only of images and just doing things like typing in album names is slow. I have to wait for it to catch up on my typing. Even doing ctrl+a on about 200 files takes a while to be selected.

Does anyone know what settings I can try playing with to make things move quicker?

I'm using a Ryzen 7 dedicating 6 cores to the VM plus 22GBs of RAM. The VM is stored on a USB 3.1 drive. Other programs on the VM work plenty fast, like trying XNView or Gimp.

I don't have 3D acceleration enabled. I heard that could affect things. Does Media Center use 3D rendering?

This sounds like the issue in this thread: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,126669.0.html

If so, I have the same issue.  Maybe add your voice over there?  I'm not sure the devs can reproduce this right now, but more info is probably welcome.

I have the same issues with MC25 over Ubuntu. Some tasks are really painful.
