Changing to some 'tabs' or 'sections' or whatever they called them
took a five count...  I mean it wasn't just kind of slow sometimes, it
was making me wonder if my mouse button was broken :-)

It was obviously a bug or some misconfiguration somewhere I figured
they'd iron out (I believe I saw other commentary at the time saying
the same things)   Fire it up on your regular desktop as a different
user and see if you spot what I mean.  I've seen aptitude do updates
to those debs since, it's quite possible they fixed it since I tried
it.

I did my testing in a VM at work - and I'm on vacation this week but I
could try it again for you when I'm back if you'd like - just shoot me
a note offlist.
