QT4 is now double-buffered, furthermore it uses antialiasing for a lot
of its widgets and has a new painting engine which uses XRender
trapezoids. Unfourtunatly the trapezoids are not hw accalerated, so
they are slow compared to what QT3 did.
I am not 100% sure, but when running your benchmarks pay attention to
the time spent in Xorg in relation to the QT client.
