Thanks for the suggestions Kai-Uwe but I'm very much stuck with GTK+ because that's what the project uses (it's a collaborative project - not my own).  Really I only need to find out why the performance is so sluggish under OS-X when it's so much better under Windows and Linux.  I very much suspect that it's a simple case of no hardware acceleration taking place - and if that's the case, I need to find out why.
