Slowness in SkyMap

[Hy Murveit]

Responding to (and moving) Akarsh's note below.

I don't know what's going on, but I can second that.
Every now and then I get this incredible slowness drawing the terrain
overlay.
Right now, kstars is unusable with terrain enabled on my dev Linux VM.
When I turn terrain off (which takes a while because of the extreme
slowness) all is ok.
It seems to working ok natively on my Mac.
I haven't changed anything in the terrain code in years.
Seems likely to be related to the issue you're reporting.

Anyone else see this?

Hi Akshay

Nice to see you join team KStars! Akshay and I went to college together way
back in 2008 or so, and we used to be in the astronomy club together.

On a side note HiPS overlay is crawling on my friend’s 2019 MacBook Air and
after some time KStars hangs. Makes it unusable. Any idea what’s going on?

Regards
Akarsh
