Interestingly...I mentioned this to Nate offline. IDL has a "graphics_times" benchmark you can run, I'm sure Mike is familiar with it. I ran it to compare the Xig server to the XSuSe server to an SGI O/2. Without going into the details, the final results were the XSuSE server ran in 22 seconds, the Xig in 13.5 and the O/2 in around 7.5. The greatest difference was in this test called "Hardware Fonts". Both the XSuSE and Xig servers spent around 7 seconds in this section alone. What it does is print random sequences of characters all over the display window. The O/2 kicked it out in 0.15 seconds.
