Bug Description

Binary package hint: glabels

Glabel is very slow especially when edit the text-object or resizing object-boundaries, it's load much CPU (over 90%) on my Core2Duo 2.4 Gigs/2 G RAM.
On hardy glabels runs smoothly, why..?

It has something to do with the number of fonts installed on your system. Same thing happens to me. The developer has some sort of workaround, one that I am not bright enough to implement, but I don't believe it's here in Launchpad. Glabel bugs are reported either on Bugzilla or right on the Sourceforge site... I forget. Check around there, or start uninstalling fonts you are never going to use.

Wow it's work, great...!!
Thanks for your suggestion.
I have over 100 fonts installed
I reduce my fonts collections, and glabels works smoothly :-)
