I have an application (ditroff previewer) that does a lot of
BitmapBitsPuts to the window. I notice the program runs twice as fast
when I move the cursor outside the window because X insists on
repainting the cursor after every BitmapBitsPut. How can I avoid this?
I've tried a smaller cursor with no significant improvement. I've tried
a null cursor but Xlib won't let me make one.
