Which application does this for you? Some applications are pretty bad and
do a redraw on every ConfigureNotify event, while well-behaved ones let
them batch up until they're able to redraw (as part of their event loop).
It's basically a side-effect of many badly-coded applications responding
badly to quartz-wm's opaque resize.
