<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Also, because SHX is not picked
up rendering or looping through geometries in a shape file is now very
slow. I will look into the bug further and see if I can find the
problem. Is anyone else seeing this issue in 1.5 or noticed shape files
being slow?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
