That's an excellent news.
I see lags in other areas though: the handling of mouse events seems
sometimes un-coordinated. E.g. I grab a window or a widget, move or
resize it, then release mouse button, but the window or widget or
whatever continues to follow the pointer for a short while before
noticing it should stop.
Pretty bad explanation, I know. I don't know how to provide a
reproductible testcase (monitor mouse events while recording what
happens on screen ?)
