Hi, Does anybody know whether the default X-Server on Solaris 8 will do any hardware acceleration for operations such as polyline and rectangle draws and rectangle fills? I've noticed with our Java application while monitoring X requests using the xmon proxy that most of the operations are the above (along with clipping and putImages) and wondered if a 2D capable card (like the GFX-450) would render these in hardware. Does anybody know if Solaris 10's X-Server does any better in terms of rendering performance? (Currently, we don't have an OpenGl capable card available so we can't leverage the OpenGL pipeline.)
Also, it appears that when you draw to an offscreen image (even if it is shared) that the draw requests still go through the X-Server, is that how it is supposed to be working? (I've tried creating images from the JPanel using createImage() and just creating BufferedImage().)
