I am running on XFree 3.1.2x and it does run in "real-time." I am
going to try it later on AIX 3.2 and Sunos 4.1.1 see what happens
there. Kai, what OS are you on? It sounds like the events are not
being flushed during the movement. Maybe an XFlush() might do
somewhere (possibly affecting certain architectures) ???
