Hi there,

Thank you very much for looking into this.

I have evaluating Java 7 for our company product, as part of our software is Java-based.

The various performance and memory improvements (G1 included) in Java 7 has been very impressive so far. The only problems which are currently holding us back are all graphics-related; the one which I've mentioned, and some very sluggish Java2D performance when resizing even simple (<10 components) JFrame.

Thanks again and hopefully we can upgrade Java 7 in the near future.

Regards, Alex.

Hi Alex,

Run into repaint() issue when using Aero Snap to stretch the height of the window (not maximise).

Looks like someone else filed a bug report some time ago: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/viewbug.do?bugid=7029238 They have even made a YouTube video about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nZEh6Oo7Q8 Looks like it has been ignored and marked as "Not Reproducible" though. I have tried it on many Windows 7 desktops here and have been able to reproduce this issue with all the Java programs I have tried. I reproduced the bug and reopened it. Thanks, Pavel
