There's a lot of speculation in the above. I have no information about what version of GTK is used on the newer model, but I hope the meme of "GTK and cairo are too slow for embedded" will die soon. We in the cairo community have been working hard to make a lot of improvements during the cairo 1.3.x snapshots, (and particularly performance improvements for machines without hardware floating-point units). I know that some people in this community are aware of these improvements, (see an earlier reply showing a blog posting with tessellator performance improvements, for example). If people still have test cases that show that cairo (as of 1.3.10 or later) is slowing down GTK+, please send them to me. I'm not really aware of much significant that is left in that area, (or my memory is failing me). -Carl
