I second that. I have had the (bad) luck of developing a major XView application on a Sun-3/160. Apart from startup time (it take some time to initialize a lot of XView objects) performance was more than adequate. Even interactive graphics performed nicely. Note - this was using X11R4. XView will do as good as, but no better, than the window server used. /Lars -- Lars Fischer, fischer@iesd.auc.dk | Beauty is a French phonetic corruption CS Dept., Univ. of Aalborg, DENMARK. | - FZ
