X-Server 1.5.0 very sluggish (original) (raw)

Working on it … right now it looks like:

• XShm pixmaps got accidentally reenabled in the course of Adam’s changes
• Someone (maybe GTK, having tracked it down yet) is taking advantage
  of that by creating a shared pixmap and using it as the source for a composite operation.
• That is not handled well in EXA and triggers migration of the destination back to system memory. (*)

(*) One of the many cases where we’d be better off creating temporaries in video memory to avoid migration.
