Not sure if this is the module for this type of problem or if it's somewhere else ...

Recently, maybe right around the time when MMX support was added to kdefx, all menu's (application or the 'K' menu) flicker / redraw very badly when moving the mouse over an entry that requires a submenu to expand. Normal entries do not cause the entire menu to redraw.  While I only have a PIII 500Mhz I did not notice this problem before.  Could it be a performance problem caused by the new vFolder access somehow, a genuine extra redraw call, or something else?  Btw, this happens when I use the nVidia drivers and when I do not (although I could retest this as it's been a while)
