Yes! I just tried the simpler case of growing one single newly created
ext3 test partition in the same extended partition as before. Again
I noted that >80% CPU was consumed by Xorg and >10% by gpartedbin
during the two e2fsck phases. The e2fsck took 5 minutes each. I grew
the partition from 20 to 21 GB. Details are in the attached report
gparted_details_499193_3.htm.

Yes, I succeded to compile gparted 0.6.0 on my Debian Sid system, with
and without the -v option to e2fsck in ext3.cc. Unfortunately there was
no difference. In the attached report gparted_details_499193_4.htm you
can see that the -v is really gone.
I also noted the same behaviour when resize2fs is running as with
e2fsck. It seems like it is the animation itself that causes the
delays and high cpu consumption. It doesn't help much if I let some
other window cover the animation.
