I would repeat several sentences in my last reply.
Why would people write Windows application with rather MFC/ATL/.NET Framework

write a X11 application with original X11 API, without QT or other X11
toolkit?
I believe the answer is that all programmers are human begins, not
machines. Human programmer would reduce brainwork, even if an API
package/wrapper slightly reduces running efficiency.
And this is why office 2003 takes longer to load on a 2.4ghz machine then
office 97 did on a 233.
I don't think that is a comparison you can safely make and retain any
creditability.
If you want to keep the changes you made in a local tree or a p4 tree or
whatever, and show us we're all wrong when you're done, thats fine. But
expecting committers to drop your code into the tree for such a purpose is
silly.
