The former is more stable, saves memory and gives better performance.
The latter avoids a one- or two-second server freeze when rasterising
large fonts.
I use the former, and refuse to consider the latter. Some people that
I do respect disagree.
AA> Which is the best font server? xfstt or xfs?
Both are good. Xfs is standard and deals with all font formats, xfstt
is simpler to use but only handles TrueType.
If you decide to use xfstt, be aware that some of the XFree86 docs
won't appply to your system.
