Package: libcairo2 Version: 1.12.2-1 Severity: important I use here an ancient machine that nevertheless is adequate for client tasks. Yet after upgrading libcairo2 from 1.10.2-7 to 1.12.2-1 (it migrated to testing yesterday) anything that uses it became slow to the point of uselessness.
We're talking about a redraw a text window taking in the ballpark of a second or so. Downgrading to 1.10.2-7 makes it fast again. I tried running cairo-pref-utils to possibly identify the offender, but that seems to be crashing with 1.12.2-1: 1.10.2-7: [~]$ cairo-perf-trace cairo-trace-1 [ # ] backend test min(s) median(s) stddev. count [ 0] xcb cairo-trace-1 10.898 10.911 0.09% 5/6 [ 0] xlib cairo-trace-1 3.491 3.503 0.35% 5/6 [ # ] image: pixman 0.24.4 [ 0] image cairo-trace-1 2.398 2.404 0.15% 5/6 [ # ] image16: pixman 0.24.4 [ 0] image16 cairo-trace-1 1.052 2.015 35.96% 15/15 1.12.2-1: [~]$ cairo-perf-trace cairo-trace-2 [ # ] backend test min(s) median(s) stddev. count [ 0] xcb cairo-trace-2 Detected error during xcb run: error=2, seqno=0x0e, major=53, minor=0 cairo-perf-trace: /build/buildd-cairo_1.12.2-1-i386-sf6aNZ/cairo-1.12.2/boilerplate/cairo-boilerplate-xcb.c:115: _cairo_boilerplate_xcb_cleanup: Assertion `status == CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS' failed.
