I don't really think this is an issue created by GTK, but I'll throw it out there to see if anyone has thoughts on this issue. I have 2 Matrox dual head G450 cards running 4 monitors. I will eventually start four instances of the program, one for each monitor, but for right now I'm running it once on one monitor, or screen. If I run my program which loops through pixbufs, displaying them to one particular screen, on 1/2 second intervals. On two of the heads it taxes the processor around 20%, on the other 2 heads it taxes the processor around 98%. Might this be X or GTK redirection that is causing this overload? If anyone wants to respond but needs more information just let me know. Matt _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
