Well, you have mostly good answers to this question.

wrote a great article on the topic of using color in X, for the "Cross
Thoughts" column in Unix Review Magazine. I've kept a copy ever since:

Hello,
I am trying to implement a 3D engine from scratch with XCB. To do this, I

bottlenecking the program and making it slow to draw individual triangles.
