It takes 5 seconds on a 1.86GHz Pentium M with a Radeon X300 and Xorg
7.1 here... in a gnome-terminal. It even takes 10s in a xterm. I don't
actually find it slow... BUT, it takes 0.5 seconds in rxvt-unicode.
Which X terminal are you using ?

So this is not a X server problem, this is just a matter of how the X
terminal is implemented. So unless you have a good reason, I will close
this bug. You may want to complain to the developer of your X terminal...

XFree86 and Sarge won't get fixed anymore. I understand that Etch is not
released yet. But, keeping bugs that are fixed in testing is not really
that useful. Closing them with an explanation is not that bad.
