Hi,
I've been using org-mode more and more and, unsurprisingly, it gets
slower and slower due to the increasing amount of data org-mode has to
parse and evaluate. On my desktop systems (and on my full-featured
laptop), this is not yet a problem [1]. On my little netbook (the
original eee pc from Asus which is used primarily for org-mode!),
there
are some annoyances due to the much slower cpu. I'd like to mention
one
that I believe should be easy to fix (for those with much more elisp
expertise than my own...):
When in agenda view, when org-agenda-goto-date is invoked (typically
with 'j'), the agenda view is regenerated for today's date
regardless of
which date I am currently viewing, before allowing me to input a date.
This seems an unnecessary step and I wonder whether it would be easy
to
change? On my Asus, regenerating the view for my current date (with
todos, scheduled items, etc) takes at least 8 seconds! When I'm
checking out various dates in the future for possible meetings or
whatever, having to wait up to 10 seconds each time I look at a
different date gets a little frustrating.
I've had a look at org-agenda-goto-date and org-read-date but it's not
immediately apparent to me why the current date's view has to be
generated.
