- normally I work locally on my Indigo and the graphics (more specific the
- X server) is very fast. Now I want it to slow down by a factor of 10..100
- so I can see what happens to my program on loaded communication lines
- Also it makes it easier to check for redundant draws (those that can
- be elft out without any harm to the net result)
-
- I tried to do this naively, by simply starting many programs. This however
- makes the system behave in bursts (I runs a little time on one program
- swaps the next program, runs that etc...) I would like a smooth
- degradation of my otherwise fast indigo as if it runs on a clock speed of
- 2 MHZ (or lower)
-
- Can this be done, without altering the source code of my program?
