M-x animate-birthday-present in 21.3 (and the recent 21.4) the animation is smooth. In a CVS emacs built aftre xasserts were turned back off by default, it's flickery and slow and sometimes stalls entirely before completing the animation. Obviously animate is just a bit of fun but I wonder if it doesn't indicate an underlying performance regression of something.
