[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#665674: gtk2-engines-oxygen: Low drawing performance

[Samuel Orr]

Package: gtk2-engines-oxygen
Version: 1.2.2-1
Severity: normal

The oxygen gtk style is nearly 2x slower at running gtkperf than qtcurve.
I was testing 2d performance and saw noticeably poor results on
drop down menus and buttons. I tested with gtk2-engines-qtcurve and
performance was quite fast. Here are the results of the tests:

Oxygen:

    GtkPerf 0.40 - Starting testing: Sat Mar 24 23:11:32 2012

    GtkEntry - time:  0.07

    GtkComboBoxEntry - time:  5.45
    GtkSpinButton - time:  0.54
    GtkProgressBar - time:  0.33
    GtkToggleButton - time:  0.77
    GtkCheckButton - time:  0.75
    GtkRadioButton - time:  0.79
