Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Port Expert info changes to 1.2.2? - Significant performance improvement.

[Jaap Keuter <jaap.keuter@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Yeah, i know it's good. Hence it should be the attraction for 1.4, not 1.2.

Otherwise where will it end?

Again a reason to release stable before sharkfest'10 ;)

Thanx,

Jaap

As you can see there is a significant reduction in the time required to load the expert data in trunk. Some of the gain is probably

Due to other changes but I still believe it would be worth it to port this even if it's new functionality or is the old behavior a bug?  ;-)

There is no significant change in memmory usage in expert infos.
