[Users] [Bug 2584] GUI redraws itself slowly

[Michael]

Noteworthy, there is one very impressive difference between the 2 kernel versions:

- With kernel 2.6.39, claws File -> Exit closes the Window within a second.
- With kernel 3.0.2, claws needs more than 7 seconds. And it's stucking to the extent that the 'File' pulldown menu does not get 'pulled back' until the Window finally disappears.

It is the same for any other GTK app, closing is ugly slow and even the pulldown stucks. For example, firefox needs ridiculous 15 seconds to disappear. 

This all with, and without gnome-settings-daemon.

QT applications never show any delay here at all, neither in workspace switching, nor in closing the Window, and no matter what kernel. So at least for me, there is a huge difference in the kernel behavior X GTK (so maybe a memory issue?)

Launching claws --debug with gsd running shows no significant change in launch or quit timing.

Launch time < 1s and Exit does:
