I think you are reffering to the bug report Owen linked earlier. Yes, the
menu popup lag is more visible on these "heavier" apps, but comparatively to
equivelant kde or xp apps, gedit also feels "slow" as I said to my previous
email.

I just tried it, I disabled AA and haven't seen any noticable change.

Gnome's "Default", no extra tweaking anywhere.

I tried many apps, all Gtk apps give me the same feeling. And also it
happens on all my machines and distros or BSDs. It is the way gtk works, I
guess.
