LiveCode 6.6 & 6.7 Running slow
Apps running in 6.6 and 6.7 on my pc and android tablets run slow. 6.5 and earlier versions work fine. So my question is - will subsequent version of livecode be optimized to increase the program speed? Or am I stuck with only using 6.5. Thanks Joe

Re: LiveCode 6.6 & 6.7 Running slow
Well i've isolated why 6.6 and 6.7 are extremely painfully slow on Android. It's those pesky new image algorithms. The improved graphics rendering in 6.6 and 6.7 are severely hurting app performance on Android. I hope it gets adjusted or maybe an option to revert those particular changes (it was working smoothly and fine in 6.5 and under).

Is this the case only with apps that have some images or even the ones without any?qberty1337 wrote:It's those pesky new image algorithms. The improved graphics rendering in 6.6 and 6.7 are severely hurting app performance on Android.

Well I think it has an effect on any app that contains things needing to be rendered in that setting and having acceleratedRendering on.keram wrote:Is this the case only with apps that have some images or even the ones without any?qberty1337 wrote:It's those pesky new image algorithms.

Hi qberty1337,
Is it still slow with the latest stable version 6.6.2?
Or did they fix it?

Yes in the new 6.6.2 stable release (and RC 4), they reverted the normal resizeQuality algorithm to what it was in 6.5. I've tested this with my apps and everything works perfectly fine again. No lags or slow downs! Hopefully they fix the algorithm in the future.
