I actually did try the "Tight" encoding -- and included a note about this on
the vnc page (Encodings section). it does seem to be more compact than Zlib,
however, there's a lot more overhead to decoding it, so it's slower than
Zlib on Newton -- so I commented out the code in newtVNC. (in fact, with
Paul's fast bitmap drawing function, even Raw is faster than the much more
compact Hextile encoding).

you're welcome
