Can someone tell me when this lag started appearing? That might help
narrow down the cause...

Just to chime in, I'm seeing the same thing (slow tool dragging)
with the the MacPorts Gimp 2.6.3. I'm running on a MacBook Pro /
2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo with 2GB ram. This is after reinstalling
2.3.2_rc3 over OS/X 10.5.6.

Tom is right in what I am referring to, that is, the fact that in
the current rc the tool curser lags behind the mouse pointer. As
to defining a "while back" I am not positive. I have tried to
search the x11 list but can not find the specific email. I seem to
remember this happening in Nov 2007 when Ben Byer was about. I
think the solution we came up with then was that if we clicked
"Disable Beam Synchronization" the sluggishness disappeared.
Shortly after that the problem was fixed and then came back only
recently with 2.3.2, maybe 2.3.1. I could just start by installing
old versions to see when the problem disappeared and then
reappeared if you think that would help.
Of course I have no idea what I am talking about, but I know the
sluggishness is there with 2.3.2_rcx and not there with whatever
version was installed with 10.5.6.

This was fixed a while back, but seems to have reappeared with
2.3.2. The X11 version from 10.5.6 does not have this problem,
and
IIRC neither did 2.3.1.
What do you mean by "a while back"? Can you tell me what version
this
fix appeared in? I don't recall this ever being an issue.
FWIW, I recall that GIMP's tool drag speed sucked to the point of
near unusability the one and only time I ever tried to use it on
Mac.
Judging from file dates, I was using either X 2.3.1 or one of its
last
beta/rc releases.
[ experiments... ] It seems to be better in 2.3.2 rc3: at least,
actual
painting is quick. If you just move the mouse around with the
pencil
tool selected, you can detect a visible lag between the cursor
image and
the mouse pointer. Not sure if that's what Mike sees, but in any
case
the lag seems to be less than what I remember seeing in September.
