[issue33500] Python TKinter for Mac on latest 2.7.15 still extremely slow vs Windows

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

Responses to the following might help anyone who works on this.

1. Is the relative performance only an issue on 2.7 and not 3.6+?

2. What are the 'recent issues here'?  What is different about your example code.

3. We prefer plain text .py files that can be viewed in a browser or downloaded and run.

4. We prefer minimal failing examples.  (Here, 'failing' means 'slow'.)  What particular tkinter functions run comparitively slow?
