Apparently libxcb accidentally turned on "Nagle's algorithm" with TCP
transmissions, which is especially bad for real-time stuff like X over
the network. This causes a performance penalty for all X applications
over the network, although some apps are more effected than others.

Fedora 11 binaries
Please upgrade libxcb on your K12Linux Fedora 10 or Fedora 11 server and
client chroots. We need confirmation that:
1) This doesn't cause any regressions.
2) This actually does help performance (on what applications?)
