Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

from what i can tell, he is not. but he is focusing on tear's options dialog right now.

i just wonder why it was noticed only now, as i cant find a difference in older versions of webkit...

whats confusing is that i could have sworn webkit was faster in older versions, but downgrading now seems to prove me wrong.

but i noticed one thing, if webkit is downloading graphics from the net, its painfully slow vs just reloading the page from cache. this can be observed in tear by loading a page fully and then either hitting reload or the green icon.

with reload its painfully slow (even microb seems to load graphics faster).

but with the green (not sure what to call it) button, its a couple of seconds at most.

still, im starting to think it may be a local issue, as im having some slowdowns with app manager and some odd reboots. could be the file system for the internal memory have gotten damaged or something.

not sure if i want to do a full reflash of the tablet tho...

Example link of what you mean by downloading graphics from the net?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

any page with one or more image on it.

basically, when a pages graphics are not cached.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Did you try older versions of tear, instead (or in addition) to older versions of webkit?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

tried both, and i cant nail down the difference.

thing is, i suspect its webkit, as im also seeing the slowdown using webkit-eal.

oh, i just clocked forum.dumpshock.com to 1:12 in webkit, 0:35 in microb...

go? enter? :D

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

I couldn't get XSLT work on tear. Is there any method or patch to do that? I need to run a page with SVG, AJAX and XSLT, and as far as I experience, neither tear nor arora is able to render it.

Is there a way to add xslt functionality to Tear?

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Yes, a rebuild.

The next rebuild will have it.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

did a bit more testing, and the older webkit versions i used was able to load the page in 35-45 seconds.

i keep thinking they should have been faster, but its still a noticable difference.

Re: Tear 0.3 - Simple WebKit browser, now with Dashboard

Tso, can you check if this version is faster?
Also it has XSLT enabled.
