Re: gtk+ and gtk-engines slow

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

If you want to use imlib as a low level image loading library, and don't
want it to cache specific pixmaps, call gdk_imlib_changed_image on the
GdkImlibImage structs after loading.  I think this invalidates those
cached pixmaps so they get freed.
