Hi, some time ago, maybe a year of so I saw a post some where
suggesting that disabling selinux would improve the speed of gnome
(cant recall weather it was fedora specific or not) and I did and yes
things (most notably menus and window opening and closing) were
faster...

Daniel J Walsh:
I think this is a red herring. I can think of no reason why XWindows would run faster with SELinux disabled. SELinux only effects performance when an Access control decision is being made by the kernel. XWindows should not be going through the kernel for an access check.

I'm not so sure.  Gnome isn't X.  Gnome is an application (or set of
applications).  I'd reckon that it's operation would be subject to
SELinux as much as any others.

You misunderstood. None of X related software including GNOME is access restricted by SELinux and there wouldnt a reason for it to cause a slowdown.
