Hi,
It is very cool to see the forward progress with X11 on OS X. I use it heavily every day at work and really appreciate the efforts being put into this. As a developer myself, the work involved is much appreciated.
My question is this. Is it a known issue for the sluggishness of redrawing windows in X11 on Leopard? Here is a detailed example. I use rdesktop (compiled from source) at work to connect to many Windows servers for management. Previously with Tiger, the window updating speed was as it should be, there was no noticeable delay with doing things inside the X11 window. With Leopard and the new
X.org implementation, operations done inside an X11 window are very painful because of the 'chunky' redrawing of the window as things happen on the remote server. It is almost to the point of unusable unless I am working inside of an editor on the remote server where not much is being redrawn.
I believe I read some posts a few days ago on the Apple discussion boards where another guy was experiencing the same behavior and has posted bugs for this. Are there active bugs in the X11 work queue for this issue?
Thanks so much,
Jesse
