To be fair, I've noticed a similar lag and 100% CPU usage during resize
operations on the ATI open-source driver (hardware: RV635), the Intel
open-source driver (hardware: GMA950), and the nvidia binary driver
(hardware: GF6200 IGP on Athlon64).   The ATI binary driver just lags
more severely than everything else.

The best possible solution would be "Option C" above... we need to get
the backclear patch accepted upstream.  After all, the current behavior
of the X server makes no sense: why the heck do you need to read back
the contents of video RAM to allocate a new window?
