Well, it might be in combination with added features and stuff, overall it
feels slower.
E.g. I have the impression that in kmail switching between folders and
displaying a message become noticable slower.
Konqy feels as fast as in KDE 2, but can do much more now :-)

I will try in the next days.
Several widgets delay the actual redrawing using a 0 timer, now if a dialog
has a lot of widgets, could it be possible that this overhead (e.g. 30
timers starting and checking) might become noticable ?
It is the short moment of "thinking" where I only see the background colors of
the dialog, before the actual drawing starts, which leads me to this idea.
