Bug#587394: plasma-widgets-addons: fileWatcher is very slow with medium sized files
Package: plasma-widgets-addons
Version: 4:4.4.4-1
Severity: important
I put a fileWatcher Widget on my desktop showing the syslog. Now it happened that
the syslog was about 30MB in size one day. Then logging in to KDE takes a lot of time
First the splash screen hangs for about 30 seconds, then it goes to the desktop but it takes
another minute or so until the control bar finally appears.
I changed the file to display in fileWatcher and the problem goes away.
It should not really be so expensive to get the last 5-10 lines of a 30 MB syslog.
Best regards
Johannes
