Hi,
I'm working on rewriting Wine its blitting code using XRender. This has several advantages e.g. no need for depth conversion, no need for manual stretching/mirroring, it saves a lot of back-and-forth copying between X and further various operations will be accelerated by the GPU using XRender. (For a big part it might eliminate the need for a DIB engine!)
Right now I'm looking for some 2D GDI benchmark tools which test blitting performance and other 2D operations and which work on Wine. I have tried Sisoft Sandra and PassMark but those don't work on Wine. Does anyone know any other 2D benchmark tools? It would help me a lot to isolate slow parts and optimize my code even further.
Thanks, Roderick

Maybe this? http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalMark/index-e.html
( I haven't tried it, just Googled for benchmarking tools - particularly see this screenshot: http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalMark/images/CrystalMark2004R2_Result... there is a GDI mark)

OK, just tried it. Not only does it work under Wine, but it works pretty damn well - although the GDI test hurts your eyes :)
