Looks like I've complete misunderstood the issue.
Actually I've never thought it would still be problem. I usually feel no
difference between windows and linux.
Nevertheless as others mentioned it may be a window manager (metacity is
famed as "slow") or a Gtk2 issue (Gtk2 is getting faster with each
release aster 2.0).
Sorry for the irrelevant comments.
