RE: Pango draw text is 600 times slow !!??

["Tom Liu" <tom liu flextrade com>]

Setting up pango and freeing will take a lot of time.
But I really don't know how to setup pango one and use it.
        The first function:
        gtk_widget_create_pango_layout
        need the string as parameter.

I say it this way:  Setting up pango, drawing, and freeing
everything, is 600 times slower than drawing using X call.  But
perhaps it is not what people are interested in.  What people are
interested in is how many times pango drawing is slower than X
call.  Setting up pango and freeing memory is done once and
should not be counted there.
