We are using XFree 4.4.0 on a system with a 300MHz Geode GX1 processor and the CS5530A companion chip.
We have written a small application using Borland's Kylix which draws five bar charts which are updated every second. The program runs fine BUT its using 70% of CPU time to keep the display updated. (The numbers fed to the charts are generated by the program, there is no external factor influencing the generation of these numbers). If we run the same program (re-compiled) on the same hardware running Micro$oft Windoze 98 the program uses about 10% CPU time. The LINUX version of the program running on a 400MHz EDEN processor with a Savage graphics chip takes less than 1% of CPU time. Is it just that the geode driver is not very good or is there some other problem. If windoze drivers can draw the charts quick enough why cant the xfree drivers do the same thing.
