Wouldn't this improve dramatically if gschem used some kind of real fonts 
instead of drawing every letter with little lines? If this is the case, 
we may just have to wait until cairo supports glyphs and font stuff.

Just tried the little box option with this line in my gschemrc:
	(fast-mousepan "enabled") 
This does indeed speed up panning dramatically. However it is an ugly 
hack and doesn't help with zoom.
