Oh, that got wrong. In my own tests with dbe disabled in st and with dbe; there wasn’t much difference in speed on my Thinkpad. So my query is to ask you comrades to test st with dbe disabled and see if the missing speed difference is not just the four cores in my laptop. You can disable dbe in st without editing your xorg.conf by commenting out the code in xinit() that will set xw.buf to the Xdbe buffer. Sincerely, Christoph Lohmann
