The color is updated just on mouse release event for the Advanced color selector. Only its own color preview square updates in realtime. The specific color selector is a bit laggy, but you never know exactly when it's going to update the color: if you move the sliders fast enough, it does not update at all. The small color select works in real time. It is not laggy at all, and update the other controllers color in real time.
If I remember correctly the delays where introduce after the realtime update cause problems on some system. Not sure if that is still the case. Currently the specific selector has a 50 ms delay and the advanced color selector does updates on button release.
Sven is right, doing it in real time gives trouble with performance -- but we should make it consistent for all color selectors.
(We need to check all color selector dockers for this, of course -- but it's a junior job).
