[Spice-devel] Any Volunteers to rewrite spice by Object-C

2012-08-06 Thread mzawdx wang
Hi: I have got the idea for long time. Rewrite spice by Object-C, not only for interesting, but some economic interests. Any Volunteers ? I've heard lots of suggestions about this on the googles. So shall we ? Thanks! ___ Spice-devel mailing list

[Spice-devel] Performance of Xspice - some results, and a potential patch

2012-08-06 Thread Jeremy White
I've spent several weeks analyzing the network performance of Xspice against two test cases. I also crafted a patch which implements an alternate mode for the xf86-video-qxl driver that dramatically improves network performance. The two test cases are simple [1]; a script drives either Libre

[Spice-devel] [Warning cleanup 1/4] mathcalls.h defines a y1() function which triggers a gcc warning; use y_1 local variables instead to avoid this warning.

[Spice-devel] [Warning cleanup 2/4] Use an alternate local variable than sin, as it conflicts with the math library. Eliminates gcc -Wshadow warnings.

Hi, About the large number of packets: we do plan to aggregate small messages together. Your analysis emphasize the importance of it. Thanks! About the bandwidth: There is one important thing to take into consideration - spice stream of messages is not deterministic; it depends on the
