[Squeakland] speed

[Nicholas Bennett]

Last time I had looked at this kind of thing a lot of it was rendering the 
rotated sketch morphs (some effect just from the size of em, and some from 
the rotate operation).

A quick and dirty test to see if this is your issue is to make them all look 
like 'dot' and/or turn off the rotation - if this is the problem it will 
speed up, making them all huge would slow things down.

At one point I tried to profile into the rendering stuff to at least 
automatically cache rotated forms (or allow said caching), but I gave up....

I'd be interested in any comments or suggestions re how to address this - it 
does seem 'too slow'

regards,
nicholas
