When open a xterm, spectrwm takes around a second to react. Closing windows is even slower (~1 second for it to disappear, and another ~0.5 seconds until the other windows are resized). Changing focus also seems to be affected (hard to tell).\r\n\r\nSetting `bar_format` to a single `x` improves things; performance gets worse when I add more characters. The problem vanishes completely when I disable the bar, or set `bar_font` to a Xft font. I tried using a different XLFD, but this did not make a difference. I set my terminal (urxvt) to use a XLFD; that also had no effect.\r\n\r\nSo it looks like the way in which spectrwm uses the X11 font rendering is the culprit here."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/conformal/spectrwm/issues/comments/72568974","html_url":"https://github.com/conformal/spectrwm/issues/88#issuecomment-72568974","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/conformal/spectrwm/issues/88","id":72568974,"user":{"login":"truecolour","id":10114889,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10114889?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour","html_url":"https://github.com/truecolour","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/truecolour/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-02-03T00:32:20Z","updated_at":"2015-02-03T00:32:20Z","body":"I am using the default config; judging from the comments there it is `baraction.sh`.
