Comment 6 for bug 907676

I made a simple benchmark if this bug is still critical now (rev 1181).

Scenario:
Start GTG, delete 50 random tasks and close GTG

You can automate it by adding following code at the end of __init__() method in GTG/gtk/browser/browser.py:
<code>
        gobject.idle_add(self.test_case)

    def test_case(self):
        for tid in self.activetree.get_all_nodes()[:50]:
            if self.req.has_task(tid):
                self.req.delete_task(tid,recursive=True)
        gtk.main_iteration()
        gobject.idle_add(gtk.main_quit)
</code>

Current time to complete the test case: 23 seconds
Time to complete the test case without savexml at all: 12 seconds (I need 10 seconds to start my tasks)

Deleting 50 tasks results in 73 times savexml. As you know, the work with a disk is very slow.

This bug is still critical.
