[Qgis-developer] SpatiaLite very slow with QGIS 1.7

Hi Noli, hi Royce,

I've just spent several hours attempting to build the
current QGIS-Trunk SVN snapshot on my cheap and old
second hand MacMini (incredibly slow hardware, really
an extenuating time consuming process ...).

Anyway, these are my personal findings:

- Mac Os X 10.5 Intel
- not using frameworks at all (only the Qt one)
- using MacPorts libraries instead
- and using INTERNAL SpatiaLite (2.4.0-RC4)

+ QGIS on Mac Os X runs exactly as it run on Windows
+ I was completely unable to observe any issue about
   the Identify tool
+ opening an 80+ layers DB takes an absolutely
   reasonable time
+ closing the same DB is a quite immediate process

So, I'm completely unable to tell you why the 'standard'
QGIS distribution for Mac Os X shows so many problems
related to SpatiaLite 2.4.0-RC4 as you've reported.

At this point I strongly suspect that something is
broken or misconfigured in the most recent SpatiaLite
Mac Os X framework, because simply avoiding to use
this one and building so to use the INTERNAL spatialite
instead fixes any issue.

bye Sandro
