Solved: qt app start up time slow under Solaris 9, when many locales are installed
Message 1 in thread
When a qt gui app starts, it gets its list of fonts from the system. If
there
are a lot of locales and ergo lots of fonts installed on this system, this
loading process can take (too) much time. On Sun Solaris, there exists a
command called fc-cache, which must be run as root to build a cache of
installed
fonts.
fc-cache can also be run as a normal user.
