Do you see this only with windows guests? (I dont' have access to those right now) Is there a linux distribution/release with which you can reproduce this (both slow with new package and fast with old)?

The first drawing of a desktop of 1024x768 takes about 5 seconds. The mouse behaves very sluggish and you can actually move the mouse faster than displayed. When the physical mouse movement stopped the mouse pointer will still be moving for several seconds. Using vncviewer from the xtightvncviewer package does not have this problem. The initial screen is drawn in less than a second. The mouse movement is fast. Unfortunately xtightvncviewer is no alternative, since the keymaps are not mapped correctly.
