Um - both of those features can be shut off in the preferences.  Dock 
icon bouncing is a CPU hog because Apple made it a CPU Hog.

The flashing windows are a CPU hog because they are flashing windows.

If your machine can't handle those (anything <= G4 400 will definitely 
see a slowdown) then turn these off in preferences.
