A bit of a sledgehammer, but, yes, I may eventually resort to that. At present I don't even know whether the slowdown is in a syscall, though it seems likely since a 9.x X server talking to the same hardware without kernel involvement *shouldn't* be any slower. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
