Guess you are trying with LDTP 1.7.1 release ? If older release, request to
switch to newer one. I generally verify things with git head.

On Ubuntu 9.10, just the default gedit shows 377 object.

In LDTPv2 object property are queried at run-time and so the performance is
too slow. I'm working on appmap branch in LDTPv2 which seems to be much
better

real    0m39.709s
user    0m0.124s
sys    0m0.972s

Regular head version just gets the info from accessibility stack each time,
we request the object info, the appmap branch, just pokes the window once
(same as LDTPv1) and then just use that info, unless the object info
currently misses on performing some action / verification. In that case, the
complete hierarchy will be poked once again and all the info will be
maintained locally.

 Actually I’ve tried one dump tree for LDTPv1, but it’ll cost much time to

Ya, I understand this. I remember  James Tatum reported the same issue
earlier, when he was writing an UI.

Let me check, how we can improve the performance on this.

Thanks
