    why is the mit R4 server on a PS2 AIX 1.1 so much slower than the ibm's
    R3 server when you run the ico demo program:
     ico -dbl -faces -colors red pink orange

It's using a multi-buffering extension, with a real time delay, rather
than "run as fast as you can".  Try it with "-softdbl" instead.
