RE: Windows testing required: Updated runtime

Hi Dave,

I am finding similar load times to the others with your new version 1.5 – for me 12-14 seconds is much faster than before. What is really good is that everything else if working much faster – discovery of servers, connecting to specific server, acquisition of schemas, and tables.

Yes – I too get the ToString error mention elsewhere when showing data from the table, but works fine with an SQL Select.

The only other anomaly I have seen so far is that initially I started PgAdmin and it appeared very small along the top of the screen. I had to press Ctrl-+ a number of times to see anything. It has restarted just fine since then,

Thanks for the good work,

Nigel

All,

I've put an interim build of pgAdmin 4 at https://developer.pgadmin.org/~dpage/pgadmin4-1.5-x86.exe for Windows users. This build uses a work in progress patch to replace the slow Qt components with ActiveQt + the Microsoft web browser control to significantly improve performance.

The version also includes close to 100 other bug fixes and changes, most noticeably performance improvements in the Query Tool that make it significantly faster than pgAdmin 3 with large result sets, and the ability to open the Query Tool and Debugger in new tabs that can be dragged onto different windows and therefore displays.

If you have the ability, please give it a test and let me know how it performs. There are some known issues that we're working on:

- The Query Tool History view isn't rendered correctly.

- Closing a tab is now detected when there's a dirty query tool window in it, but closing the window containing the tab is not.

- Inactive tabs have no visual definition between them.

- When dragging a tab, the mouse icon changes to one with a stop sign in it.

- If you close the last tab in a child window, it doesn't close the window.

- Popout alerts don't display correctly.

Thanks!
