QT_XCB_NATIVE_PAINTING makes it worse in 2x-times... WTF? > Sounds like XCB isn't as well optimized as Qt is ;)
Note though, that there are number of techniques to make the native painting faster, such as always using qpixmap so the images stays buffered on the server side. You might be able to massage your program to be faster with native painting, but the whole reason for switching to Qt side painting was that for the average application developer Qt side was faster.
