[Fabounet <fabounet03@xxxxxxxxx>]

the OpenGL backend of the dock needs perfect drivers, because it uses both
composite and opengl at the same time (which no other program does). So I
wouldn't be surprised if the Intel drivers in Maverick were buggy (it
happened with the ATI drivers in Lucid). I would prefer it's a bug on our
side (because then we could fix it) but unfortunately I'm unable to
reproduce it :-/
So I appreciate your feedbacks, and if you think you have a way to reproduce
it (like activating an applet makes the dock slow), please tell me :-)
