I just emerged KDE, changing from the monolytic packages to the split

Now windows redrawing is painfully (and cas-ca-ding) slow.
The problem seems to be the same as in

(but no answer there...)
Any idea?
First step to isolate this problem, I'd install a minimalist wm such as
x11-wm/openbox and see which apps I can reproduce the problem with there, if
any.

Not that easy. The problem is more visible when the desktop is filled
with a Mozilla window and I change to this desktop. I would need a wm
with virtual desktops and it had to be possible to change desktops via
keyboard.
I'm getting tired of KDE: each upgrade brings new problems. I would give
it up if I could find a wm supporting multiple desktops (with the
possibility of different backgrounds) and control via keyboard. I can't
get KDE's goodies, like shadows and transparency, to work, anyway...
Thanks for the reply.
