[maemo-developers] Feature request for Application Menu

[From: Florent de Dinechin]

While we're there, am I the only one to think the main menu is 
inacceptably slow? This is especially true after some period of inaction 
(does something get swapped?) or after boot, but it is never 
instantaneous as it should. I have the feeling the gobject is 
reconstructed from scratch each time I click, with all the mallocs etc, 
then laboriously freed before the application is launched. If it is the 
case there is room for improvement here: the structure of this menu 
changes only in well controled situations, maybe it could stay in memory.

This is true of the user interface of most apps, actually. The file 
manager is a pain, too.

I reopened my psion 5 yesterday to transfer a few remaining files, and 
it felt much more responsive. It shouldn't, it is so old!

Is that worth filling a bug?
