I don’t think there’s any linking going on with Xlib, so that’s not an option. The slowness is in the areas where it’s doing a whole bunch of floating point calculations, which the ARM processor isn’t exactly speedy at doing.

Try compiling this with the XCB configuration of Xlib, it will reduce the footprint and possibly speed up the app.

Does Tux Paint use a particular toolkit? Which area needed the greatest effort in porting to the 770?

I haven’t used it yet, but it looks promising. Still, Tux Paint is a program that kids love and I myself love, and is currently a bit more full-featured than Horizon, simply due to it being around for a lot longer and being available for more platforms. I’d like to see both projects continue.
