I've just built and installed fvwm-2.0.43 and see some odd symptoms.
The screen initially responds slowly.
Refresh screen is tangibly slower
Clicking in an XEmacs scrollbar may scroll twice or more
The strange thing is that if I switch to twm (using the fvwm menu) the
problem goes away. Furthermore, when I go back to fvwm (using restart
from the twm menu) then the problem stays fixed. Restarting fvwm by
itself is not adequate to fix the problem. Subsequent restarts of
fvwm after twm stay fast. Stopping and then starting fvwm makes it
slow again.
Fvwm is running under IRIX 6.2. The (default) compile options include
-O2 and -32. The X server is X11R4. I'd previously been using fvwm
1.22f without this problem.
