Re: (severe) performance issues

[Bobby Jack <bobbykjack yahoo co uk>]

Just tried the test again on the following:

   * Athlon 1.1 GHz
   * gtk 2.10.8
   * nVidia GeForce 2 MX 400
   * Same defaults

and I see about 99% CPU usage, shared by XOrg and the
executable itself, in about a 2-1 ratio.

I'm not sure if we're proving that the original post
had a point or that we have a lot of hardware, some of
it good, some of it crap ;)
