So let's start with: how do you test that Qt 4 is
slower than Qt 3? What's
your test, where can I get the source to verify it?
The same old diskussion, and it
will not lead to a solution. As neither KDE
nor TDE or any other DE offers a test suit the user is up to his/her personal
impression.
Some months ago (was it last year? time flyes ...) you suggested tde to switch
to kwin4 and drop kwin3.5. Well, I tried it and posted my results. It's like
walking in tar. Just install TDE, change the WM to kwin4 and start working.
You could do as I did, set up 2 identical maschines next to each other (I'd
suggest you use Intel or Nvidia gc - X61 in my case) and make a one by one
comparsion.
Just as a small reminder: do you really think that can
be the case? Qt 4
got trimmed to run on smartphones - I have a few of those (e.g. the N9 and
the N950, also used to have a Symbian device) and they would love to have
the specs of your X61. Given that Nokia invested lots of money in that
area, do you really think the engineers would not have realized that Qt 3
was faster, look at that code and make better use of it in Qt 4?
And Nokia is still the rising star of smartphone universe ;-)
