I'm using gnome terminal to do some big builds, like 'build world' or similar, and I notice that XFree86 can use up to 35% of the CPU. WIth xterm, this seems to never be more than 3-4%. I assume that this is because of the font rendering. Is there anything I can do to enable font caching? Does X cache rendered fonts? I haven't really touched the defaults or played with this stuff before, and appreciate any help. - Mike H.
