Dear Maintainer,

This version of icewm causes windows to scroll very slowly. A program that
scrolled quickly with the X-server using about 10% of the CPU with
icewm_1.3.8-2_i386 now scrolls very slowly with the X-server using all of the
available CPU. Any program that was running at the same time as icewm remains
slow even after the icewm process has been stopped.

Hallo,

This doesn't sound like a bug in icewm, more like some issue in other
core components (video driver, font libraries, etc.) which icewm just
triggers by chance.

Plese share your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file. And try the scrolling with
basic programs (like, xterm), gnome based programs and Qt based programs
(Terminator, konsole, etc.), and report the detailed results.

Regards,
Eduard.
