Odd, it was entirely consistent for me. This is with GTK and X11-over-ssh-over-slowish-ADSL, so the actual refresh of the display will be slow, but that ought not to imply anything about how fast the guest can do things, right? (I'm wondering if we somehow manage to spend all our time trying to service the GUI and no time making forward progress in the guest, though I don't have a clear idea in mind of why this would be so or why this change would make things worse, except that presumably we now do more full-screen-invalidates.) -- PMM
