Description
Rendering of large number of points (symbols) takes a long time. The rendering function symbol() (backend for D_symbol() and D_symbol2()) in symbol.c (Programming manual) calls G_malloc(). I didn't do any profiling, but according to my experience, G_malloc()/G_free() called hundreds of times will negatively influence the performance. It would be nice if we can avoid that allocation and perhaps even the following for loop.
