Re: XWin 100% CPU usage for Java applications on Vista
I had similar problems and found that starting the X Server with
-engine 1 will help. Give it a try.
I was experimenting with other solutions, and I found Xming, another
open source project. Xming doesn't seem to have any of the problems of
Cygwin/X.
What's funny is that Xming has command line parameters very similar to
the cygwin version, including the -engine parameter, with the same 3
options. GDI, DD, DD no lock.
Even the tray icon context menu and the about window are the same.
I wonder why RedHat doesn't include this X server instead of Cygwin/X
in the cygwin distribution, especially since, according to the
Cygwin/X home page, the project lost its maintainer 2 years ago.
