New issue 5 by joanie.d...@xxxxxxxxx: Translating short strings takes an
extremely long time and gobbles up CPU if braillePages=yes
http://code.google.com/p/liblouisxml/issues/detail?id=5
Step to reproduce:
1. Run the attached test script.
Expected results: Each test string would be translated quickly.
Actual results: The first string is translated quickly; the second string
takes an extremely long time and nearly 100% CPU. (It will seem like a
hang. But wait as it really will return. Eventually.)
Sample run of the script:
-----
$ ./louistest.py
Length of string to translate: 80 characters
Translation completed in: 0.003 seconds
Length of string to translate: 64 characters
Translation completed in: 99.382 seconds
-----
Other notes:
* The tester goes with default config.
* If braillePages=no, the bug does not appear.
* Reliably reproducible in Fedora 16 (64 bit).
* Using liblouisxml 2.4.0.
