[dev] IMP 3.X vs IMP 2.2.X speed...

[Michael M Slusarz]

Quoting Marc Jauvin <marc at register4less.com>:

| Hi all,
| 
| I was wondering what makes IMP 3.X feels much slower than the older 2.2.X
| interface... are there ways to speed it up, what makes that speed
| difference?

Mainly because IMP does 10 times as much stuff in IMP 3.X than IMP 2.X.  
Simply put (for the most part) - more features, less bugs = slower 
performance.  IMP HEAD may likely be slower than IMP 3.x, but it also 
renders messages better and does (much, much) more stuff.
