Slower launch after gvc started creating .app shell?

[davidfstr]

It feels like it takes perhaps an extra half second for a command like "gdh" to launch the gvc.app ever since the CLI started creating a .app shell on demand.

Things to check:

• Perhaps gvc is failing to cache a .app that is already created, unnecessarily recreating it on every CLI call

Things to do:

• Add performance tests around how long it takes for a gvc CLI command to launch & show a window in gvc.app
  • Suggest add end-to-end wall clock profile that (1) is captured on each CI run and (2) is graphed against historical CI runs automatically in the generated per CI run report
  • Suggest add deterministic performance test that mocks the CLI's dependencies and counts the number of "expensive" operations that are performed
