1. Tcl Issues
Tcl 8.4 is recommended for use with Mod.
There are several scaling-related issues with Tcl versions 8.5 and above.
These include:
1.1 Text Scrollbars Oddness
Scrollbars in the text widget seem to behave oddly with large tables.
The scrollbar appears to keep growing. Tabular now provides a workaround.
1.2 Clock Slowdown
In Tcl 8.5 [clock] was rewritten into Tcl and thus
[clock scan] became 25 times slower. Thus if you must use 8.5+ against
large amounts of data, consider
using clockold.
