I would concur with Wolfgang that, if this behavior is optional, it
would best be controlled by a user default rather than by some dynamic
test (timing of operations, etc.) Different people have different
thresholds of tolerance for "slow" behavior; an automatic test is
unlikely to satisfy as many people as a simple choice might.
The fastest "PC" I have in service right now is a 200MHz PIII. It is
"fast enough" for the few things I use it for, and I don't like
generic PC hardware enough to justify the effort or time needed to
upgrade it yet. I use my MacBook or Sun workstation for most things.
If it were possible to turn this feature off, I would turn it off on
both the PC and the Sun (which is a dual-processor Sparc, but only
450MHz, and enormously slower in X than I am comfortable with since I
installed Solaris 10 on it).
