You can try disabling updates when you are populating the list. I cannot recall the name of the function off hand, but it's easy enough to find. I think it's gtk_clist_freeze() or something like that. If you're not already doing that while you're populating the clist, try it and see what happens. -Rich ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jiri Pavlovsky" <ps@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 5:56 AM Subject: gtk very slow on win32 > Hi, > > I compiled my app on win98 box using MinGW and gtk2.2.2 .
