Title:
  gvim in ubuntu is slow when switching tabs or navigating lines

Status in “vim” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It's been like this forever really. Because I worked both on Ubuntu
  and MacOSX interchangeably I didn't care as much. Now I think maybe
  it's time to finally find out what is wrong with it.

  THE PROBLEM: when I switch tabs or navigate the lines with arrows or
  J,K keys and when I do it repeatedly (as if when trying to find the
  right tab holding Ctrl and hitting Tab) it seems to be delaying the
  action. When I stop hitting the keys gvim may still be finishing the
  operations (for instance, I stop hitting Ctrl+Tab, gvim may switch 5
  more tabs - the number depends on how long I've been hitting Ctrl+Tab
  - before it stops).

  MacVim with similar settings in .vimrc works just fine. The delays are
  present both when Compiz is turned off and turned on. Any ideas?
