qterminal in virtual machine seems a little slow #1167

qterminal version 1.4.0 os: debian sid description: When I open qterminal, it always cost 1 second. When I open xfce4-terminal, it just opened in no time. I have test it in bare metal, and qterminal is fast as xfce4-terminal. But I install qterminal in my debian virtual machine, it will be a little slow.(vmware)

Addition : When I disable 3D Acceleration in VMWARE, qterminal will be fast. But then I enable 3D Acceleration , xfce4-terminal also is fast! Why?

I'm afraid there's nothing we could do here. It isn't about QTerminal itself, but about rendering.

When I disable 3D Acceleration in VMWARE, qterminal will be fast... Why?

Perhaps because QTerminal supports translucency and VMWARE has a problem with it.
