Hi,

First, as this is my first post here, thanks a lot for this excellent product.
I've been using fvwm since 1995 and it has never failed me.

I've recently upgraded my desktop to fedora 10 x86_64, fvwm --version
fvwm 2.5.26 compiled on Aug 30 2008 at 13:20:30
with support for: ReadLine, Stroke, XPM, PNG, SVG, Shape, XShm, SM, Bidi text,
Xinerama, XRender, XCursor, XFT, NLS

I use FvwmIconMan to arrange my windows and with this version the redraw became very slow - it takes ~2 seconds to append 100 windows after a page switch. Each item is added independently, so the icon-man slowly grows (or shrinks).

I was searching for an option to control this behaviour but could not find any,
so I thought I'd ask if there is any way around this.

We saw your post yesterday.

Thanks ... I thought it went into trash as I was not subscribed yet.

I'm guessing no one has answered because no one knows the answer.

OK, thanks ... i'll try to trace it down myself and report.

Finally got the time to look into this ... traced it down to a XFlush() at the end of modules/FvwmIconMan/xmanager.c::draw_button().

If I just comment it out everything seems to work fine.

Best,
Matevz
