Description

I do compile all stuff on Solaris 10 (Sparc) myself. After compiling and installing cairo 1.8.10, firefox 3.0.18 feels extremely sluggish. The Xsun process (Solaris' X11 server) consumes lots of CPU cycles. I recompiled 1.8.8 and reverted to this version, then firefox runs normal again. Something's wrong with pixmap handling?

Both version have been compiled using the same options: CC=cc CFLAGS="-O" ./configure --prefix=/export --enable-static=no

Version: 1.8.10
