So this is probably the reason why I see no speed difference on my old box 
(K6/200), it probably simply can't do faster.

Yesterday I tried with a different windows decoration (kde default, instead 
system++) and I still had the problems with the resize-pointer. But this is 
probably independent from your patch.

Another problem: some windows don't appear on kpager, e.g. kmail quite often.
It seems to happen more often if the box is under heavy load. Then I always 
put these windows first on "All desktops" and then they appear in kpager.

Bye
Alex
