I'm working on an application that creates an overlay plane using a
temporary pixmap (back buffer) and copying it back to the window with
XCopyArea.  This involves 3 copies -- one to copy the data to the temp
pixmap, one for an overlayed pixmap and one to copy it back to the
window.

Unfortunately, the second XCopyArea is incredibly slow and I'm getting
just under 1 fps.  (normal without it)  This trick works fine on most
Sun X servers, but seems to die with XFree86/Linux IA-32.

Interestingly, if I switch to another VT and switch back, life is grand;
everything is as fast as can be.

Any ideas?  Would Xdbe help out here?

Jeff
