Comment #2 on issue 971 by tu...(a)tudorgirba.com: Using Athens fonts is dead slow in Roassal http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/detail?id=971 After the fix, the same code works in 5s. To be mentioned that [10 to: 100 do: [ :x | (LogicalFont familyName: 'Arial' pointSize: x) widthOfString: 'test' ]] timeToRun takes a bit less than 5s on my machine. Thus, essentially, the time spent now on the rendering is only due to the first lookup of the fonts (no extra lookup is performed). This is reasonable and it will get better once we get a better caching at the Pharo level. The cached font is reset on modelChanged: I think this is a good enough solution. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.

Comment #8 on issue 971 by tu...(a)tudorgirba.com: Using Athens fonts is dead slow in Roassal http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/detail?id=971 That is because you did not install Athens :). It's not enough to load Athens in the image. You also need to tell Roassal to use Athens. MooseImageSetupCommandLineHandler>>#installAthens Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'Pharo' project: 'Athens'; package: 'ConfigurationOfAthens'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfAthens) loadVersion: '2.1'. Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'ObjectProfile' project: 'Roassal'; package: 'RoassalAthens'; load.
