Subject: [SLOF PATCH 2/2] fbuffer: Use a smaller cursor
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 12:19:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438078795-14360-3-git-send-email-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1438078795-14360-1-git-send-email-thuth@redhat.com>

Drawing the cursor in the frame buffer memory is a very, very
slow operation. So let's simply switch to a "underscore" cursor
instead of the full block cursor to save some precious cycles.
