-----------------------------------------------

A workaround is to use Ctrl-T to hide selection which frees the CPU as the
marching ants are not displayed.

This obviously means the selection is also hidden so making some operations
difficult.

It may be the nvidia hardware version which has the problem.

The graphics card is an old PCI one, which I'm using dual screen.

I can reproduce it at will, but an unsure what would help you.
