very slow updating of client area

[Andrew Makhorin <mao@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Please see below a function that processes WM_PAINT message. Being run
under Wine this function updates the client area (50x120 chars) about 
50-100 times slower than under Windows XP. Could anyone please explain
me what might be wrong and how to fix that? 

Thank you,

Andrew Makhorin
