When compiling and using latest klayout release 0.28.10 and opening a larger layout the right mouse zoom in function, but also keyboard based zoom in functionality has longer delays.
CentOS7, self compiled QT5 + klayout 0.28.10, removed $HOME .klayoutrc
The effect is as follows:
- open a large layout
- full hierarchy depth (*)
- show only one selected layer, then add a second layer to show
- try to zoom in (and out + in again, several times)
now: when zooming in often the zoom in shows significant delays.
BUT When I Show All layers. there is no such a delay. Showing only 2..3 individual layers again shows the zoom in issue.
This is very reproducible with different layouts, uncompressed GDS sizes used for tests: 3..5 GB
Then I compiled previous releases and it looks like this is happening since klayout 0.28.8.
It still works fine in 0.28.7.
