I'm having problems with Applixware running very slow. These problems
began when I upgraded to XFree 3.2 which uses much less RAM than the
previous 3.1.2 version. I thought maybe I should enable backing store
for the Applix windows. How do I do this? If I use xwininfo on Applix
windows, I get
Backing Store State: NotUseful
What does this mean? I have been reading the HTML documents and man pages,
but all I could find was an option to _disable_ backing store which is the
opposite of what I want. ;-)
I'm not sure if backing store will help, but Applix _did_ run remarkably
faster under 3.1.2...
Thanks,
