I recall a discussion a few months ago relating to the X Toolkit and performance. As I recall Joel McCormick stated that DEC had tweaked certain routines, specifically that they would hash the shared GC's. The R3 beta code does not appear to have this feature--it still does a linear search. Was this code written and, if so, will it be given to MIT? Also, a month ago, Joel stated that he had made certain enhancements to the xrm code to speed up toolkit start-up times. Was (or will) this be given to MIT ?
