Wow, Zorro 2 is slow!

So I set up my A1200T today. It has a 060 board and a Zorro 2 busboard together with a CV64-3D.

I used to have an A4000 back in the day with the same spec so I was quite surprised to see how slow the setup above was in a descent resolution like 1024x768x16 bit.

Moving windows was slow and icon drawing took forever, it was weird coz I tried Power icons and PNG icons felt just as fast (or faster) than stock Glowicons.

I have always known Zorro 2 was slower than Zorro 3 but I did not realize this slow, or I might have been remembering the past through roze tinted glases?

I have an (ancient, I think) MicroniK 6860 busboard. And I am running CGX4. I should look at the acceleration in prefs if that can speed things up. May I as where I can find that option?

Perhaps the problem is I am running a photo (size: ~500 kb) as a background, that was actually the whole point of adding a graphics board since I wanted to look at nice backgrounds when playing tunes in Eagleplayer

Changed it a bit now and it is slightly faster, I think the main problem is the 1600x1200 background scaled down to 1024x768.

I have been spoiled by WinUAE for a couple of years so I have to fix a couple of things in my installation to better fit real world hardware.
