I hope someone investigates why X11 didn't behave well right after
updating the kernel/world/some-packages.

Please confirm the presence or absence of the AllowEmptyInput option in your xorg.conf.

I tested yesterday and found that "AllowEmptyInput" "off" with dbus/hal running produced exactly the behavior you describe.

A FreeBSD major version upgrade with mixed old a new libraries can certainly cause problems, but the specific "laggy X11" problem is more likely due to that option.
