Bug Description

Binary package hint: synaptic

The interface for the "New in repository" status in Synaptic is much slower than any other view. Clicking on "New in repository" hangs synaptic for 300-500ms on my computer. Clicking a package in that list also has similar delays. In both instances CPU is 100% for that split second. Compare this to other views (e.g. All, Installed, etc.) which are instant to switch to and select packages in.

synaptic 0.70~pre2ubuntu1

Hi Delan,

This may have something to do with this bug in Natty:

What apt version are you using?

Quick search filter is also slow. Marking actions, let alone selecting packages when a quick search filter is enabled is very sluggish. Maybe the "New in repository" status is really a search filter?
