Hi,

My initial timing based on gut feeling was not accurate. In gcompris 8.4 my
watch measured two seconds instead of the three that I thought it was. I
guess I started counting from 1 or something as embarrassing. Sorry about
that.

I don't have the goocanvas with png version anymore, so I cannot re-measure
it. What changes should I make to get back the png version?

Now the dialog pops up after about one second. If I remember correctly, the
png version rendered in about the same time. One second is still a long
time, but a good improvement from the previous. Half a second is usually
regarded as most time application can spend without giving the user
feedback.

Best regards,
Terje
