opening https repository takes ages

[dings@…]

When I open a https repository (with self-signed certificate) with kdesvn-1.4.1 it takes about 3 minutes.

I already turned off "Start check for updates...", "Start fill log on open", "Get file details while remote listing", "Always get properties", "Log follows node changes" and "Log always reads list of changed file" - this does not change anything. And it works fine with other repos that are accessed over http.

And: Opening same repository on the same computer with kdesvn-1.0.5 takes less than 5 seconds.

My client machine is gentoo, kde-4.3.1 and 3.5.10, subversion-1.6.5 The server is not under my influence, so I'm sorry I can't provide details about it. AFAIK it's running on windows.

Are you sure that it depends on https? I tried it here and it works as fast as plain access when using same repository.

Is it possible access this repository via http instead of https?

After trying with other Repos I'm no longer sure the problem is caused by https.

The time needed seems to depend on the amount of items in the opened folder, an extreme example is  https://svn.typo3.org/TYPO3v4/Extensions/ (contains hundreads of entries) - about 25 min to open, while  https://svn.typo3.org/TYPO3v4/Extensions/tt_address/ - (3 items) - loads in about 10 seconds.

http without "s" seems to be faster, but still much slower than 1.0.5 -  http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/src/ for example takes about 1 minute.

Makes sense with both protocols. It looks like the same problem like #694.

Ok - I'd checked with this repository. The current trunk real contains the fix for it, it opens in upcoming version in less than a second.

This real depends on how the tooltips are generated. In earlier qt versions them are only generated on user interaction, eg., mouse moves over an item. Now them are generated when window gets activated. And for hundreds of entries on slow networks this is horrible.

Real sorry about that.

Thank you! Just built latest svn (rev #1969) - and performance is fine, even whith huge repos.

But keep care: this isn't stable and more dirty than quick (but should work in most cases).

I clean up this next days to a clean desgin.
