	I'd suggest profiling it ;-) Almost certainly something -very- dumb is
going on.

	Similar effects happen as soon as any form of transparency is in-use;
we still have amazing horrors all over the code in VCL eg. the
pattern-fill is still using XOR rendering ;->

	If you can get libo started in callgrind - and then reset the counters:
callgrind_control -z - do a few of the slow operation, then
callgrind_control --dump and send me the log - I'd be interested :-)
after all - it looks like we just stopped fixed the horrendous knock-on
bugs from my/Thorsten's last speedup in draw ;-)

	Thanks,

		Michael.
