This currenly just wraps GMarkupParser, but the plan is to expose this
instead of GMarkup in the GtkBuildable interfaces, allowing us to
replace the parser with something that handles pre-parsed input
instead.
Note that we duplicate some of the features of GMarkup to implement
the APIs rather then call down to GMarkup, as we need to support these
in the pre-parsed case anyway.
We were converting the same colors over and over again to a string, just
to free them again at the end of the function. We know the colors at
compile time however, so don't convert them at all.
load_symbolic_svg was loading the pixbuf just to get its size via
gdk_pixbuf_get_{width,height}. However, this function is called in a
loop in gtk_make_symbolic_pixbuf_from_data.
So, do this only once and pass the icon size along to load_symbolic_svg.
Add a cache of icon infos that we keep around a little longer, to avoid
loading icons from disk that only exist for a short amount of time (e.g.
during one frame of a cell renderer snapshot).
We make sure recently used items are kept alive by just adding them to
the cache on lookup.
We were allocating IconThemeDir instances and then only later assign a
value to has_icons. In the !has_icons case, we were directly throwing
the IconThemeDir away again.
Delay allocating the IconThemeDirs until we know that it has icons.
This avoids allocating and then de-allocating around 1400 IconThemeDir
instances when opening the widget-factory.
The previous code was hiding the fact that the scan_resources function
almost always did nothing and just used g_resources_enumerate_children()
and then returned FALSE, leaving the caller with cleaning up the already
allocated IconThemeDir. By inlining this, we make sure that calling code
does not even need to allocate the IconThemeDir.
It doesn't really make sense to save the applications and groups in
recent infos as linked lists. We get them from glib as arrays, so we can
as well just save them as such.
Creating a recent manager can be fairly expensive and we won't use it if
the widget is not visible or the recent mode has not been entered. Code
other places can already handle a NULL recent manager, so just create it
when entering the recent mode. And shove 25ms of startup time off the
widget-factory this way.
