I need to create a pair of pixmaps( sensitive and insensensitive) for a Motif 
button.  The second pixmap will be just like the first, except it should be 
stippled using the background color.  To accomplish this, I am calling 
XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData twice, with the same data.  Then I call 
XFillRectangle with the appropriate gc to stipple the second pixmap.

I think I should be able to copy the first pixmap to the second 
( using memcpy or some other low level routine ) and then call XFillRectangle
on the new pixmap.  The problem here is I don't really know how much memory
the pixmap occupies.

It has also been suggested that I use XCreatePixmap and XCopyArea to create 
the second pixmap.  

Does anyone know which of these (or any other) methods would be faster?
