Thanks Michael, I will try out your settings! It seems that Cocoa Emacs has several problems. Even if it works well overall, I've read in a lot of places users complaining about it, and indeed, it has several rendering flaws, just use it for any extended period of time and you'll spot a few, a bunch are related to performance.
I hope the emacs developers spend more time on the Cocoa/OSX side of things for version 24! MacVim has been getting a lot of hype and attention lately and is very well supported, to make a quick comparison here. Cheers, Marcelo.
