[Plplot-cvs] CVS update notice (plplot/drivers)

[Rafael L. <rla...@us...>]

Update of /cvsroot/plplot/plplot/drivers
In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv20296

Modified Files:
	gnome.c 
Log Message:
Implemented Andrew Roach's idea of caching plD_polyline commands for
consecutive connected (same color and width) line draw request and
creating bigger canvas polyline objects.  This reduced by 75% the
rendering time for the x01c demo (the main culprits were the text
characters and the axes; those latter used to produce more than 500
objects per axis!)

I think I am really done with the "simple" things that I can do as
regards the performance.  The Gnome driver is only 3 times slower than
the xwin driver and I think that this is acceptable.

I fixed several other bugs also, too many to document here.  Since I
am still experimenting with some different ideas, the code became
uglier than it has never been.  Please, do not hack it until I clean
it up.
