Hi all, I was listening in on the last irc meeting and caught an aftermeeting mentioning about bad Qt4 performance. I offered an article and a possible workaround I found recently, in case people are not aware of it, and was asked to bring it to attention to other developers also, so here goes: I'm suffering bad graphical performance in Qt4 and PyQt4 applications and searched for solutions. I found a post on nokia.com [1] that mentions a command line switch that might help. In short: adding "-graphicssystem raster" to my Qt4 applications' command line improved performance drastically for me. There's also a method to set it programmatically, and an environment variable [2].
