Duplicate Cleaner UI Sluggish

Post by therube »

Duplicate Cleaner Free 3.2.1 UI Sluggish

That about sums it up.
Sluggish.
Actions are not crisp.
Experiencing delays where I would expect none.
Changing Tabs, opening context menu's, ...

Suppose it has to do with the beast, .NET?


My powerhouse: XP SP3, Intel E4300, 2GB RAM

Very strange - I wonder if this is related to your list flickering problem below. Does it do this each time, even after a fresh start?

Reboot.
Open Altap Salamander (file manager), Process Hacker, then Duplicate Cleaner.

Yes, the UI is still sluggish.

I would suspect, yes.

Again, I would think, yes.
The flickering did not appear initially, but after I opened my browser, SeaMonkey, [which does consume a bunch of memory (948 MB at present) & does have a lot of windows & tabs (860 tabs in 54 windows)] & on then returning to Duplicate Cleaner (I had not closed it), the flickering was there to greet me.

Sluggishness also seem exacerbated.


I have not found other programs reacting similarly.


PS: Video, NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 (yes another powerhouse)

I had 3.0, 3.14, & 3.15 on hand.

3.14 & 3.15 also exhibit the sluggishness.
3.0 did not, but that was a different animal.

Given the age of 3.14, ~April 2013, I certainly would have noticed this issue before now, yet I hadn't.
So that would tend to point me towards a (relatively recent) Windows (.NET) update that came through that affects us?


I keep a clean, relatively static, system.
No A/V or anything like that. Nothing running realtime that should be affecting things.


Oh, I do have that one virus, it's called .NET;
