           Summary: Gruntz: Slow down a lot when displaying text
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.28
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: miro at hroncok.cz


Gameplay slows down a lot, when text is displayed in game window. I mean white
text with information in top left corner or text when writing cheats.
Displaying text in game guides is OK, same as text in classic Windows dialogs.

Steps to reproduce:
For white text in top lef corner:
1. start playing the game (SINGLEPLAYER > QUICKSTART)
2. click the mouse button twice, to actually start playing the game
3. hit F5 to quicksave the game
4. set a name of the game and click on Save
5. OK all the dialogs
6. F5 again
5. the white text appears in top left corner, game slows down until text
disappears
(This may not work in the demo.)

For writing a cheat:
1. start playing the game (SINGLEPLAYER > QUICKSTART)
2. click the mouse button twice, to actually start playing the game
3. hit Enter and write something
4. game slows down
5. hit Enter again
6. game is OK again

It is not playable during the time, game is slowed down. Also I know two
things:
1. Neither CPU or Memory usage goes up during the slow down.
2. There are no errors or text in the terminal during the slow down.

PS Sorry, but I didn't test this in any earlier version of Wine, so it is
possible this is happening since ever...
