an application with windowless child widgets is much more light-weight and resource friendly as we don’t allocate native windows for every single widget
There has been something that has really irked me since i have used gnome. I have used ATI cards, And nvidia ones.. i have tried open source drivers.. and the proprietary ones.. and there seems to be in common.. an innefficieny of the windowing system... where it will spike the cpu and become resource intensive when you drag it around.
i made a video showing exactly what i mean here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gh7ABSs1NY
I have read that it is in reality just a synchronization issue. but that would mean it was just a visual glitch and would not be affecting the processor like it does.
I am not familiar much with gnome and GTK so forgive me if something like this is already implemented.. but could gnome learn from this?
I am seriously considering leaving gnome once KDE gets the QT 4.4 or whatever. I have always been a user of gnome and never even gave KDE a chance before
