        Has anybody done any any performance comparisons between X and
any other windowing systems. We are looking to port a product from
SunView to X (certainly on Sun and maybe on another platform as well)
and are trying to find performance information regarding the following:

        SunView vs Xsun (mit server X11R4 or X11R4, SunOS 4.0.3)
        SunView vs XView
        SunView vs X11/NeWS (suns new windowing product)

        We are also interested in comparisons between X servers on
different products, for example, X on a Sun4 and X on a DecStation 3100.

        Also, has anybody tried to put PHIGS, PHIGS+, or PEKON on top of
X? If so, what kind of performance did you get.

        You can send all replies (assuming any) to:

        pcolby%carbon.prime.com@RELAY.CS.NET
                and/or
        gwalant%carbon.prime.com@RELAY.CS.NET

        I read comp.windows.x as well so posted followups will be received
also.

        Thanks very much,
        Peter  Colby
