[Qt-interest] signals / slots

[Constantin Makshin]

Yes, Qt supports queued connections (http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/signalsandslots.html#signals).

However, I'd suggest moving long operations to separate threads when possible. In that case they won't block the event loop and will be able to be performed simultaneously, increasing application's overall performance.

I was wondering if the emitted signals get queued somewhere, in case 2 of them overlap and the first slot takes a long time to complete. In other words I want to make sure than no signals are lost.
