Sorry, I should've written clearer what I mean. Only the 2d performance of 
XFree is slow. For example XVideo Opengl are indeed very nice. I don't use 
WinXP for other reasons, but just compare it with XFree. I think the feeling 
is just so much better. I mean thats not a special XFree problem. I've worked 
on IRIX machines for a long time and there you have the same problem. I mean 
I know that it's not all XFrees fault. The Toolkits also play an important 
role.

No, just move one Window over another or do an opaque window resize and you'll 
see artefacts all over the place.

I would like to apologize in case I didn't find the right words. I just think 
there is a problem with XFree and don't see it going away anytime soon.
