-Often using a different graphics system will give superior performance to the native
-graphics system (this is especially the case on X11). This can be configured using
-QApplication::setGraphicsSystem() or via the command line using the \c -graphicssystem
-switch.
+Startup time is influenced by the amount of QML that must be loaded.  Breaking your
+application into components which can be loaded when needed will allow faster startup time.
+This allows better runtime memory management by unloading the components when no
+longer needed.
 
-You can enable OpenGL acceleration using the \c opengl graphics system, or by setting a
-QGLWidget as the viewport of your QDeclarativeView.
+This may be achieved by using either \l Loader or creating components
+\l {Dynamic Object Management in QML}{dynamically}.
 
-You may need to try various options to find what works the best for your application.
-For embedded X11-based devices one recommended combination is to use the raster graphics
-system with a QGLWidget for the viewport. While this doesn't guarantee the \bold fastest
-performance for all use-cases, it typically has \bold{consistently good} performance for
-all use-cases. In contrast, only using the raster paint engine may result in very good
-performance for parts of your application and very poor performance elsewhere.
+\section1 Property Types
 
-The QML Viewer uses the raster graphics system by default for X11 and OS X. It also
-includes a \c -opengl command line option which sets a QGLWidget as the viewport of the
-view. On OS X, a QGLWidget is always used.
-
-You can also prevent QDeclarativeView from painting its window background if
-you will provide the background of your application using QML, e.g.
+When possible use a specific type, rather than variant, when declaring properties.
 
 \code
-QDeclarativeView window;
-window.setAttribute(Qt::WA_OpaquePaintEvent);
-window.setAttribute(Qt::WA_NoSystemBackground);
-window.viewport()->setAttribute(Qt::WA_OpaquePaintEvent);
-window.viewport()->setAttribute(Qt::WA_NoSystemBackground);
+Item {
+    property variant foo: 10
+    property real bar: 10
+
+    x: foo * 2
+    y: bar *3
+}
 \endcode
 
+bar is faster than foo.
