When GTK2 was first released, someone noted a big loss of performance of
v2 relative to v1. GTK2 has seen several releases since, so I'm interested
whether the problem is still significant.

Hi!

I mentioned this quite a while ago. This was true for win32 GTK2 then.

It seems to be a lot better since then (I'm using a GTK2 version from 20031112), but I cannot give a concrete number how slow it is compared to GTK1.
