It would be interesting for someone with a Mac to try it with a native Quartz backend... that is supposed to be quite fast. I've tried glitz backends for PCB + cairo (still slow), and have even tried GL primitives directly for drawing lines in PCB... all are just slow with my Intel graphics card. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
