I recently started running XEmacs 21.5 (built from the Mercurial
repository¹) on my home machine.
Usually when at work I ssh to my home machine and use gnuclient to
access the always running XEmacs (and Gnus). My ADSL line is 8/2 mbit/s,
so the bandwidth is okay.
With 21.4 this was pretty snappy, but with 21.5 updating the frame is
quite slow - I can literally see the lines being drawn one by one, and
often miss things because the cursor moves slowly when I hit the arrow
keys (when I don't count, or miscount.)
Is this a side-effect of XFT and fancy fonts, or is it something else?
Is there anything (easy O:-)), to do about it?
Just curious,
Adam
