 * The DMX server code is written to call #dmxSync() whenever an XSync()
 * might be necessary.  However, since XSync() requires a two way
 * communication with the other X server, eliminating unnecessary
 * XSync() calls is a key performance optimization.  Support for this
 * optimization is provided here.  Statistics about XSync() calls and
 * latency are gathered in \a dmxstat.c.
 *
 * During the initial conversion from calling XSync() immediately to the
 * XSync() batching method implemented in this file, it was noted that,
 * out of more than 300 \a x11perf tests, 8 tests became more than 100
 * times faster, with 68 more than 50X faster, 114 more than 10X faster,
 * and 181 more than 2X faster. */
