I just upgraded my Inkscape from 0.92 to 1.0 but it seems that the version 1.0 is a bit laggy and not smooth. Below are the GIFs between version 0.92 and 1.0. Are there anyone recognize this too? Are there any settings that I should configure?
Inkscape is slower on windows and mac than it is on Linux. This is because of Gtk3, lack of GPU rendering and over zealous signals. Some of these issues are being worked on for the next release, but we don't know how many of these projects will bear fruit for each of the platforms involved.
Yeah.. I suspected GTK/3 was to blame for the sudden slowdown between 0.92 and 1.x. GTK doesn't seem to play well with Windows. Inkscape was very usable on windows up until 1.x. Even on weak machines. Hopefully whatever changed gets fixed or improved upon soon. The performance tweaking features only serve to make everything look bad, with little-to-no actual performance improvement on Windows, as it's the graphical user interface itself that is the problem, not the vector graphics you're working on. It must be very difficult to use the native gui theme system for multiple OSes in a single piece of cross-platform software. Glad I installed portable version and kept 0.92.
