[udig-devel] Re: _slow_ ui performance in Linux with cairo

[Jesse Eichar]

Hi So I've done some research.  I haven't been able to test my theory  
out yet as I'm still setting up a linux box.  But I got a message  
saying that the setTransform method apparently really kill SWT  
drawing on linux.  I'm going to play with a work around and see if I  
can make a work around and see if that improves the performance.
