Libre Arts has posted aninterview with four Inkscape developers.

From what I understand, what helped was finally porting the userinterface from GTK2 to GTK3. It was just a huge task and broughtmany regressions, some of them are still in even after 2years. Just to compare, 1.0 was in alpha state for 1.5 years; butfor 1.1, it was just 3 months. So if you want a faster release,don't port your app. Too late for us though! And we probably needto port again to GTK4 now if we want to fix performanceregressions.
