nvidia drivers

Hi,
Sorry if this is a bit OT for this list but I'm guessing a lot of
gtk/linux folk will be using the NVidia ia32 drivers. Has anyone else
noticed a recent problem with gtk applications? I have been successfully
using the drivers up to and including version 3123 on a variety of
machines (P3 and Athlon)and have always noticed improvements not only with
GL applications but also my 'normal' gtk applications which involve rapid
updating of pixmaps etc. I've been running under various RH distributions
from 6.2 to 9.0.
The last two releases installed under RH9.0 seem to have a problem
however. My GTK applications which run fine under the default 'nv' drivers
run very slowly. Any fairly rapid drawing pushes the CPU usage to 100%!
I don't want to start a discussion that should be on the NVidia list and
this may indeed be hardware related (although the same card/machine works
fine with RH8.0/3123 drivers) but I just wondered if any other GTK
programmers have noticed/resolved this?
