Re: performance question

There is a section in the FAQ about bad performance. Some ATI drivers or

this machine: NVidia Riva TNT model 64
other machine: is indeed some form of ATI. I will need to investigate that.
on this machine, performance still isn't snappy. Redraws don't take as
long but that's what I expect with a machine that's twice as fast as the
other. I do not have any forms of personal firewalls or anything else
installed on the stack. I was deliberately keeping this machine as
naked as possible because background processes that affect X11 also seem
to affect speech recognition performance and accuracy.
one thing I also should have mentioned which is that I am tunneling X11
connections through ssh because the machine I am working on is on my DMZ
which prevents direct connections. I didn't think to mention this
originally because machines I use on the same network aren't
significantly faster.
