[comp.windows.x] XToolkit Enchancements?

bobmi@hpcvlx.HP.COM (Bob Miller) (09/19/88)

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 ?
