Qt QML running slow
-
Hi,
I am using olimex board with linux os. I have created qt qml desktop application using qt 5.3.2. My application needs to update qml gui on every 100 ms but it takes 2-3 secs to update it as well as when Button is clicked it takes 4-5 sec to change the color of button or change the image. Overall working of qml UI is too slow . How can make it more fast? Is there any way to do this?
Regards

Make sure you are running hardware-accelerated OpenGL. From your description I presume your app is running on Mesa drivers (where all OpenGL is computed by main CPU instead of the GPU). Also, try using EGLFS (just in case you run on xcb platform plugin).
Lastly, if only possible, upgrade your Qt version. Between 5.3 and 5.9 there have been a ton of big performance optimisations in Qt.

- Avoid Javascript as much as possible
- Do as much as possible in C++
- Reduce the number of QtQuick items used
- Set
visibletofalsefor all elements that aren't used at the moment - Update from QtQuick controls 1 to version 2
- Don't use clipping
- Don't use transparency

My QtQuick version is 2
The import part is to use Qt Quick Controls version 2 that was introduced with Qt 5.6, see Qt Quick Controls 2.0 – a new beginning! for an introduction. BTW: What Olimex board is that exactly?

my QtQuick verison is 2 and QTQuick controls version is 1 , I will try to update quick controls to version 2 .
