As I've got no idea of the status of DIB engine, besides looking at changelogs, I'd like to know it... at least to see if there's some need of help. The stuff that interests me at most is, as usual, the display speed of autocad with embedded truetype fonts (aka bug 13801), which depends deeply on DIB engine.
From what I see in changelogs, text output seems to be completed; well, the speed of autocad text rendering has risen a *small* bit, but it's still unusable, light years far away from speed of my old engine which I'm still using for my job.
So, the question : have I understood right from changelogs and text is completed in DIB engine, so I can help to make it a bit faster, or it's still missing something so I should just wait ?

Text is done. Most likely Autocad is using some other call that still goes through X11. You should be able to see this in debug traces.

Hi Alexander,
that's weird, because when I developed the former engine, I solved the slowness just when I introduced text output. Anyways, I'll try to look at logs if I can find the problem.
