I've noticed the same thing. With FC5 the (few) gnome apps I use are terrible 
compared to KDE's ones. Luckily, I don't really like gnome and use KDE 
instead :) 
The one app I do use now and then is firefox, and its performance is really 
poor compared to konqueror, my main web browser. Just switching desktops it 
takes a LOT long to redraw than konqueror (and I don't believe this is 
because I am running KDE, the same happens in gnome)

I guess you prefer gnome, but just try KDE and see it things are better.
