[Scummvm-devel] SCUMMVM suddenly very slow

[David Given]

I've just tried firing up ScummVM again, wanting to replay some old games, and 
have discovered that to my horror it's now horribly, catastrophically slow. 
It's so slow I can see the ScummVM redrawing bits of the screen; a full 
refresh takes about 500ms.

This is on a system that I can normally play full-screen video on with xlib 
calls, if I so wished.

The only difference I can see from when I last used it is that I *may* be 
using xorg rather than xfree86. My system is a Debian Sarge box; it's using 
ScummVM 0.7.1. Other applications run fine, at full speed, but when ScummVM 
is running the entire system slows to a crawl.

Does this look at all familiar to anyone? Can anyone suggest what information 
might be useful?
