I just experienced this bug also. It took me quite a while to connect connect "copying rows from open office" to "Xorg using 100% cpu". The workaround presented in bug#411542 seems to help a lot, but in lieu of a true fix, the ability to disable the marching ants animation entirely would be a perfectly acceptable solution in my opinion.
