Re: (sid) kde3.3 - X performance]
It was an answer to another user on another debian ML (as I said), i
forwarded my question also here cause i wasn't able to find the solution...
Unfortunately I already configured my video card, i don't use a generic
driver... Someone told me to upgrade from XFree 4.3.0.1 to Xorg and do
not use a precompiled binary version of kde but compile the source in
order to fit perfecly with my architecture. Can it be the best solution?
I suppose performance will increase in this way, but i was looking for
solution that can be applied to my running X environmente such as give
priority to X through nice or something like that...

It sounds like you are responding to something, but there doesn't seem
to be any clue as to what in your mail headers.
With the same hardware (an IBM Thinkpad R40e) comparing windoze XP
performance and the debian/kde3.3 ones it results slower with debian,
let's say less reactive to the user...
KDE is quite chunky, especially if you turn all the cute things on (such
as semi-transparent, fading menus). You'll also suffer a performance hit
if you clog up your RAM with servers and other processes you don't need.
You should also look at your graphics drivers, e.g. you'll get much
better performance with X11 configured to use an optimised driver then a
generic VESA one.
