I am not very familiar to cairo but I tried this without any speed-up:

context = pango_cairo_font_map_create_context (
	PANGO_CAIRO_FONT_MAP(pango_cairo_font_map_get_default()));
pango_context_load_font (context, 	
	pango_font_description_from_string("Sans"));

Maybe someone could point me to the methods I should use to render
something to the pango image surface because I could not figure out yet
with the reference documentation.

Thanks and regards,
Johannes
