[lazarus] Win32 testall report

[Markku Niskanen]

Hello all,

I have run the testall application in WinNT 4.0, I had in mind to make
a comparison test but for some reason I could not run the test app in
my Linux box (Access violation etc).

General status:
====================
It seems to me that the WinGTK library has some severe bugs and 
should be replaced with native Win32 calls asap.

Big problems:
================
* The app consumes 100% of CPU resources all the time,
presumably due to speedbutton redraw?
* Occasionally the application will not respond to any input or any
mouse command however, it seems to receive mouse events.
* There is a severe memory leak (ca 1 MB/20 secs, speedbuttons?)

General problems
=================
* The text in the text area (Welcome...) does not paint automatically.
* Menu does not paint automatically, works though when you
find it :-)
