Bug Description

Image 89

1. start messaging app, swipe back to dash
2. Expand the 'Installed' category in the Apps scope (if its already expanded, collapse it first and then expand)

What happens:
Only first 4 rows of the installed category are shown at first. There is a further expansion after 1-2 seconds which reveals all the installed apps.

Other way to reproduce is. Swipe to Apps scope then swipe to Home scope.. wait 2 seconds in each scope. repeat the process and you'll see the appearance and disappearance of the 'More suggestions' category.

Switching from one scope to the other also makes unity8 consume 60% cpu for a few seconds.

Indeed, the "more suggestions" category is only there for a moment before disappearing.

The latter "More suggestions" is a click scope bug #1233756.

I can't reproduce the thing about "Installed", though. Maybe it's just loading the icons? lp:~aacid/unity8/dashDelegateRange should help by only loading those currently on screen.

Right, its duplicate of bug 1233756 -- I will test the issue with the Installed scope after testing aacid's branch and see if that changes something.
