Tested Komodo professional, version 3.0.0-beta4, build 104847.
On Mandrake 10 with Gnome Desktop and KDE installed.

It's working fine, though it's slower with mouse and keyboard input than
KDevelop3's new php editor (which has code complete and intellisense on
php projects now). It's noticibly slower than A normal text editor like
Gedit UI editor or vi as well.

Right now I'd say it's too slow to actually use. I'm running Mandrake
10.0 on a 1 Ghz Celeron with 256 MgRam. I hope to see this product
improve in performance in the near future because Komodo 2.5 would not
run on Mandrake at all.

Could the speed problem be handled by just making most of the app with C
and GLib then tarring the source and letting us compile on our target
machines with ./configure, make and make install? 

It seems like a sensible solution to me if there's not too much UI to
rewrite. GTK+ widgets are pretty fast, and C runs well under Linux. You
could save alot of abstraction time on mouse and keyboard interupts
maybe,

At any rate, when the product is ready for realtime use, I will give it
another go. Keep up the good work please.
Cheers,
