XWindows and Graphic Terminals

[Stephen C. Arnold]

We are looking at getting two high resolution graphics terminals to run
off our SUN 4 (running SUN/OS version 4).  The main function of these
terminals will be to run XWindows.  If we get plain graphics terminals,
will they degrade the performance of the system?  Or should we get XWindow
terminals so the system's performance will stay reasonable?

Also any advice/warnings about high resolution graphics terminals (XWindow
terminals or not) will be appreciated.

Thanks
