Any thoughts?
I'm sorry I'm not much help. Originally I thought I'd just pop up
and ask the obvious questions (version, OS, DE).
I simply don't understand your sureness "it's an animation done on
purpose".
It's mainly due to the fact that :messages open instantly while other
(:cl, etc.) open with a sliding animation.
If it was due to the compositor, GTK version or other global property of
my system, would not :messages suffer from the same issue as :cl? This
is my reasoning.
gvim is a very thin skin on terminal vim, especially for the main
text area. Your video plays very quickly for me, I have to play it
at half speed to notice anything.
I suggest you try a vim GTK2 version. I've fired up a GTK3 vim here
and it seems a little slower, but nothing worth your complaint.
AFAIK GTK3 adds nothing to vim, though some theming might work
differently.
You might try changing the font, or some graphics setting of your
set-up, like the rendering backend your compositor uses. You didn't
mention your DE, that is Gnome, KDE, XFCE, et cetera.
I've mentioned it. My DE is i3, i3wm.org.
Conceivably another DE might drive your hardware better.
If your eyes are hurting, and you normally use white or light
backgrounds, IMO dark backgrounds (preferably black for text) are far
easier on the eyes.
To make progress on what's actually going on you'd have to start
profiling vim, a lot of work with little prospect of achieving
anything.

I see, thanks for your feedback, John.
