#12849: Large animated gifs in 2.7.x are slow

Reporter:  Westy543  |        Type:  defect                              
  Status:  new       |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)                        
 Version:  2.7.5     |    Keywords:  emoticon gif animated lag slow issue
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 I was recently running on 2.6.6 for the longest time, and all of my
 animated gif files showed up fine; I finally decided to upgrade to 2.7.5
 and now some of my animated gifs do not play properly - they slow down or
 play waaay too fast. I thought it was filesize related but it's entirely
 random it appears - it may be related to the number of frames, but I'm not
 sure. I checked with other protocols besides MSN that support animated
 gifs, and it also lags showing them in the text input bar. It's only since
 2.7.x that this issue has been occuring.
