Xara's renderer is fast, but Cairo with OpenGL is even faster.
But if Cairo gets Xara renderer, it will be just as fast.
Carl Worth (Cairo) talked a lot with the Xara programmers at the LGM. And as far as I know the plan was to make Xara's renderer GPL and then write an Caito backend.
Anyway, so far it's premature, since Xara's renderer is the part which is not opensourced yet (it remains a binary lib in their source tarball).
An other reason to use Cairo is, we will get PDF and PS export for free.
