[Sugar-devel] testing composition for speeding up graphics performance

[Tomeu Vizoso]

Hi,

we are considering using the composite extension in order to improve
the perceived graphics performance of Sugar.

It would be great if someone could test it by running the following.

As root: "yum install xcompmgr"
As normal user in the terminal activity: "xcompmgr -a"

And report any performance improvements when switching windows,
sliding the frame in and out, and any other operations that involve
redrawing parts of the screen.

Thanks,

Tomeu
