Although this is in reference to 3.0, I mention it because I don't
remember it being better in 3.1b3, and because not too many people are
probably running Mesa remotely over ssh to an 8-bit display so this may
have gone unnoticed.

In noFaultXAllocColor in xmesa1.c, ctable is not being cached.  When
running remotely over ssh to a pseudocolor display, calling XQueryColors
hundreds of times is SLOW -- it can take over 20 seconds for
initialization of the window/context.  If I cache it, it takes less than 2
seconds for the whole process.  Unfortunately, we do a lot of ssh-ing from
8-bit displays here, so it would be nice if this were fixed.

Of course, it may be fixed already, but I did want to mention it.  Thanks!

Sincerely,
Jeremy
