Description Tomasz "CeDeROM" CEDRO 2023-03-22 04:42:58 UTC 
Hello world :-)

Thank you for porting KiCAD 7.0 to FreeBSD :-)

With version 7.0.0 and 7.0.1 however dialogs in schematic editor are extremely slow to open. For instance double click or edit value of the resistor should show up value edit dialog instantly, however it takes around 5..10 seconds for the window itself to open.. and when more complex dialogs are opened then window showes up and it takes some long seconds to populate the window.. this makes impossible to work :-)

Did anyone observe such behavior?

Update: 7.0.1 rebuilding from ports did not help :-(
Comment 2 Tomasz "CeDeROM" CEDRO 2023-03-22 21:20:35 UTC 
Update: Reinstalling all packages did not help.

This slowdown happens only in KiCAD and version 7.0+.

Seems like a KiCAD 7 bug, reported here in the upstream:
