talking seconds here, but it's quite visible. Generally when the mouse is on a selection that contains another menu. When you move to a different selection, it takes quite a while for that menu to go away and the other to appear. Does anyone else see this? I don't discount the possibility my problem is wm related.
I don't think that discussing 'hidden politics' behind such questions would help solve anyone's problem. I've been using Gnome for quite a while and, frankly, have always preferred it over KDE both in performance and visual aspects. But that is just my opinion, and I wish Gnome had as wide software base as KDE does. To address the menu issue: do menus take long to open only when displayed for the first time, or is there some problem with caching?
As I just noted to another poster, the 'problem' seems to have gone away now. I can't seem to replicate it right now, thus you may be correct, although I doubt it as I leave my box up 24x7 and see this problem now and again. Then again I don't use the menu all that much either. It's one of those things that you notice when it happens, but aren't apparently aware when it doesn't it. Humans, always complaining, never appreciating the good things in life. :)
Which distribution/Gnome version are you using? Maybe it's just me, but when I've switched to hand-compiled Gnome 2.6, everything started working like clockwork. :)
On this box it's SuSE 9.0, with Gnome 2.2.2, so I might look at building it from a newer version.
