I'm using 0.16.999.027 on FreeBSD 6.1, transparency
is working, DRI is enabled and I can stack as much
transparent Eterms as I want, without getting any
performance problems.

But as soon as I switch to a screen where Sylpheed-Claws
or Firefox are running unshaded, Enlightenment's cpu usage
goes up the roof, even though there is no transparency used
on the current screen and the only movement happens in gkrellm.

With a fixed cpu frequency of 600 Mhz, xcompmgr running
and four transparent Eterms, gkrellm and a few modules
on the current display, Enlightenment's cpu usage stays
around 1%:

But with Firefox or Sylpheed-Claws open and unshaded in the current screen,
Enlightenment's cpu usage goes up and stays there:

sylpheed-claws 

If I shade Sylpheed-Claws (or Firefox), the cpu usage goes down again.
Sylpheed-Claws' "Compose message" window or Firefox' "Preferences" window
don't show the effect, only the main window do.

Is anybody else seeing this?
