<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I think I have been able to
narrow this issue down. It appears that setting ANGLE AUTO impacts
performance in linux. On the exact same hardware I find this performance
difference to be between 2x-3x slower for linux. I have benchmarked this
with Ubuntu Karmic, but I have also tried this on numerous versions of
Debian-based distros. Here is the detail of the package that I am
using: <a href="http://ns2.canonical.com/ko/karmic/web/php5-mapscript">http://ns2.canonical.com/ko/karmic/web/php5-mapscript</a><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>We have migrated our PHP Mapscript application from Windows
to Linux. Everything appeared to be working well until we starting
drawing maps that did quite a bit of label rendering. We found linux to be
over twice as slow as Windows XP (running MS4W 2.3.1) on the same hardware when
drawing labels. If I turn the labeling off, the map performance exceeds
that of windows. I am using the same TrueType fonts on both
systems. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have tried a number of different debian based
distributions including: Debian Lenny, Xubuntu and Ubuntu Server with different
versions of PHP Mapscript including 5.0.3, 5.2 and 5.4. All exhibited the
same results. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone ran into this problem? Is there something
significantly different between the way Windows and Linux process fonts that
could explain this? <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
