Yotam,
Thanks for Your reply.

That is the issue.
If nouveau would be as fast and fluently working as nvidia drivers (2D acceleration), you would certainly see the sluggishness.
I have also seen this with open source radeon driver with ATI HD2600 pro graphics card.

The rendering issue is more severe with nvidia drivers.
But nvidia-current_256-35 is older than libcairo2 1.9 branch.
It can only be seen cairo has evolved into a direction where it ended up being incompatible with nvidia drivers.
Note also that, libcairo issues may be apparent only in ubuntu-family, at least not in arch-linux.
So where is the bug then? Who knows.
