[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53005] Variable editor: slow performance with large arrays

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #53005 (project octave):

Yes, it is called every time Octave returns to the prompt.

The reason is that we currently have no way to tag a variable when it has been
modified.

I think I can skip the update if the tab is not visible, but I remember having
some problems with that so I undid my attempted change.

If the update is limited to only the cells that are visible, then it shouldn't
take too much time no matter how large a variable is unless you have a really
large monitor and are using a tiny font.  :-)
