Title: MIT-SHM - The MIT Shared Memory Extension
Author: Jonathan Corbet and Keith Packard
Abstract: The MIT Shared Memory extension defines standard capabilities for
 handling shared memory XImages and pixmaps.  Use of a shared memory
 segment, especially for large data structures, can result in some real
 server performance increases, as the actual image data does not need to be
 passed through the Xlib interprocess communication channel.
