New third column is HEAD + glitz, with an x31's ATI card. Still with Mist. Performance is slightly slower than HEAD just about everywhere, actually. I'll probably do an N=100 run with default theme + 2.6/HEAD/HEAD + glitz sometime later. Have to figure out how to automate this. :) The data: GtkEntry - time: 0.43 0.76 0.89 GtkComboBox - time: 12.61 15.30 15.11 GtkComboBoxEntry - time: 11.95 13.25 13.36 GtkSpinButton - time: 0.65 1.09 1.17 GtkProgressBar - time: 0.53 0.87 0.99 GtkToggleButton - time: 2.17 4.42 4.47 GtkCheckButton - time: 3.41 3.27 3.37 GtkRadioButton - time: 4.29 3.96 4.10 GtkTextView - Add text - time: 91.88 268.67 311.53 GtkTextView - Scroll - time: 43.17 190.83 229.29 GtkDrawingArea - Lines - time: 8.40 8.48 8.39 GtkDrawingArea - Circles - time: 13.38 13.58 13.42 GtkDrawingArea - Text - time: 48.70 29.99 30.34 GtkDrawingArea - Pixbufs - time: 11.71 11.46 11.16 --- Total time: 253.31 565.94 647.60 _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
