This is were I fear about the layer. I do like the idea and think this is the way to go but from our tests here FreeRDP is slower then RDesktop in some cases and seems to be related to our "indirection" layer. Adding GDI above it could make it worse. At other side, having GDI unifying the drawing code could make easier to us to explore faster and more optimized drawing codes. I think it is difficult to guess what will be the end result of all this except by doing it. XCB for example, was a try to improve the throughput performance but ended up being slower then use X11 due the way of pixmap is draw on XCB. This potentially will be a issue to be checked with GDI port. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
