Most likely, the biggest win by far will be to implement draw_markers.
 You will see the start of an attmept in draw_markers_OLD.  Not having
this function means symbol plots must make poosibly thousands of
separate calls to draw_polygon and friends, each with their own set of
gc calls.  backend_ps is probably the best place to look for
inspiration.  If you search the devel  archives for draw_markers,
you'll find lots of discussion ....
