Hello Dmitri, ... and thanks a lot for the large amount of information.
I think I will try to implement XRender "fast-paths" for the most common cases, instead of "forking" the pipeline. I hope it can be done to not replace the X11 pipeline but rather extend it, as you mentioned like GDI and DDraw. Yes, I also think that a rewrite of the X11 pipeline very much in the style of the OGL/D3D pipelines would be great - even the source available in jdk7 is much cleaner and than the source of the X11 pipeline. A complete rewrite of the X11 pipeline would be way too much work for me, I have quite a hard time at university - I guess it would be better to get at least something working than an unfinished project somewhere on sourceforge ;) I'll play arround a bit with it, hope the amount of questions will nobody bother ;) Thanks, lg Clemens
