Flysolo,
I don't need to have Winamp or Taskmanager running always on top - I don't have ANY freezes at all - not on my PII 300 Laptop with 192 megs RAM, not on my PI 233 machine with 128 megs RAM (yes, correct, I still use this machine and I love it, because it has a 1600 y 1200 monitor attached to it). In addition, I am running X almost full screen.
Whatever I do in X, there is no stop-n-go with the mouse. Strange behavior on your machine...
Just for the fun of it I've installed X on my newest machine, a 1.1 GHz Athlon - couldn't reproduce your effect, sorry.
Klaus,
you might be right, but considering that I don't have any problems with my 'oldie', I don't see any reason to reduce the window size for X...
Know your hardware :-)
Know your software :-)
And you'll be a master :-\\

jens,
i have three machines here
two older intel. running 1024 x 768.
the freeze effect lasts about 1/5 of a second.
and i think it's annoying. with taskmanager in front it't not faster - xara still has to process the strokes - but the little freezes are gone.
it's most noticable on my main machine (athlon with lots of ram...)
but if nobody minds or notices...
i told you :b
maybe mark or some other xara person could try and tell what's going on.
