So there is another possibility. Does it happen in Terminal? The vte
widget that Terminal uses can make use of the ARGB32 visual if available.

This can be very slow, even when not using a compositor. In that case,
make sure you disable the composite extension completely so that ARGB32
visual are not available.

In xorg.conf (usually /etc/X11/xorg.conf), make sure the option is set
to disable:

    Section "Extensions"
            Option "Composite" "Disable"
    EndSection

HTH
Cheers,
Olivier.
