Hi Dominik,

My original email said "between 1.4.5 and now an if was changed in..." which 
did as you
assumed correctly mean 2.4.5 and now. I mean it worked ok in 2.4.5 but didn't 
work now.
I first noticed the problem in snap-20020317 (2.5.1). Finally got to looking at 
what
caused it (at the time I was looking at the malloc calls). Was surprised it was 
ok in
2.4.X still.

I intend to start looking at the processing of the NotifyMotion events because 
I think
we can find some inprovement in handling that event since it is received by apps
registered for it much more than any event. I noticed that it is in the main 
switch for
FvwmIconMan. I'm trying to measure right now the gain by having an if trap this 
event
prior to entering the switch(). switch() is slower when 1 case is called 
significantly
more times than any other case. What do you think?

Cheers
Dave
