[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#445323: cpu-intensive window redraw/window resize

[Bruno Kleinert]

Package: xfce4-terminal
Version: 0.2.6-4
Severity: minor

hi,

xfterm consumes a lot of cpu-time when it has to redraw its window.
this effect shows up, when i resize a xfterm window and when i switch
to a workspaces with large-sized xfterm window. xfterm nearly takes a
second to draw its window at a resolution of 1680x1024.

reading through the debian changelog, it appears that there were no
changes in the code for more than four weeks. so i suspect this "bug"
was introduced by another package, because it showed up about one to
two weeks ago for the first time. i cannot remember the first time i
noticed this behaviour, so i can't figure out, which package(s) might
be the culprit.

i tested resizing the xfterm with and without xfce's integrated
compositing manager and also within a compiz environment - no
difference between them.

cheers - fuddl
