Hi,

 

It looks like the problem is related to the specifics of Java. The thing is that the drop-down list of Java Swing ComboBox is not bound to this combo box. It is an individual object which may appear at any hierarchy level. So, TestComplete has to look through the entire app structure to find this drop-down list which takes much time if there are lots of objects in the app.

 

A while ago, our R&D team created a patch which might fix this issue. So, you can contact the support team and ask for the patch (patch CC-9179). Or, you can wait for the upcoming version of TestComplete - 12.30 - as it contains many performance improvements which might resolve the issue as well.
