hi ppl,
i think the performance issue is known to many. I wrote a simple application in which there is a QMainWindow and a child QFrame attached to it. in the child frame, there are some qwt plots and some qt widgets like labels and buttons. some data will be received with UDP socket and the widgets are updated at every 100ms with the received data. the qwt plots are enabled with zoomers and panners with autoreplot disabled and anti-aliasing enabled.
the issue is, the application is run on both Linux (RHEL 4) and Windows XP with mingw. its running pretty smooth and fast on Windows XP but seems to be a bit slow on Linux. the zooming and panning operations are also slow. i came to know that, its because of windows' better graphics engine.
in general, how can we improve performance of the application? what are the optimization and performance improvement methods and options that can be applied?
it would be of great help,in particularly for new programmers, if general c++/qt programming tips and guidelines are posted for improving performance of qt applications.
thank u very much in advance. bye
swamy.
