As Eric already wrote, our Xft-XEmacs now works like a charme both

could you sample both xemacs and Xquartz (e.g. "sample Xquartz 5")
while doing some intensive text rendering operations and forward me the
results?
So we were wondering whether there are any conceptual differences of
the internal Xft handling of Apple's X11 in contrast to the handling
of the other systems? E.g., is XRender supported by default? And is
there by chance an X11 release available somewhere with profiling
information compiled into it?
drawing aa text is only altivec-accelerated when not using subpixel
(lcd) rendering
but it's unlikely that's entirely responsible for what you're seeing.
The sample output should let us see where the time is being spent.
