Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Stuttering might be a better term.  For the initial small window, I did not see 
much difference between 2.7 and 3.4. At full screen on a 25xx x 14xx screen, 
both stuttered. If the 2.7 looked better, it is because it redrew slower.  If I 
zipped the mouse fast enough, the border temorarily disappeared instead of 
being repeatedly redrawn. But full-screen empty panes were not as bad as the 
quarter-screen demo with each pane full. From Ned's comments, Windows simply 
does not handle this operation as well as Mac.

The left.pack and right.pack statements are not needed as left and right are 
'add'ed to the PanedWindow.

The easiest way to expose more text is to enlarge the Window with the text 
frame heavily weighted. This would allow people with big screen to grab the 
right edge, pull, and leave the window with both text and canvas fully exposed. 
With ttk (but apparently not tk), the panes can be weighted.
  paned.add(left, weight=10)
  paned.add(right, weight=1)
(To 'compensate', showhandle seems to have been deleted for ttk.)

The same can also be done with grid. The advantage of using the paned window is 
to give more flexibility to people with small screens, who cannot view both 
text and canvas simultaneously. However, I am not sure about the acceptibility 
of switching to ttk, especially before 3.5. Perhaps I should ask on pydev.
