Hmm... For fun, I just downloaded Gimp 2.6.3 (Intel build) from your
link and I am still seeing it (I've run it from the dmg so as to
minimize any cross-talk with my macports installation). It's quite
noticeable when I'm moving the cursor quickly in circles. And sorry,
Jeremy... I don't use the GIMP frequently enough to pinpoint when it
happened. If you like, I could try reverting to older releases of
XQuartz to see, but it would have to wait until the weekend.
BTW, just wanted to pass my thanks on for all the great work on this
project.
Cheers,
Michael

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.
