Re: GTK performance on Windows

["Clemens Eisserer" <linuxhippy gmail com>]

First of all thanks a lot for doing that much work porting GTK to windows.
I can't count how many apps I've used myself on windows-pcs which were
able to run because of your work.

I installed gimp on some win-xp computers in the company I work for
(sempron 1,6ghz or so) and also saw some kind of slow behaviour. These
are very much the issues I have on linux but more "visible".  Its the
UI, menus, window resizing, layout changes or repaint-events sent to
the window because its content was invalidated.
I can't say wether its really slow or just feels so, maybe the graphic
card driver had an influence (nvidia gf4 mx4000) or some other
circumstances were not optimal.
I simply never did care that much simply because I don't use/like this planform.

Its just hard to know whats going wrong, especially if someone is no
gtk insider.
