Hi Kim, all,

First of all, thank you very much for your work on e16.
As you said in e16 v1.0.14 announce, we are still some people using e16 and being very satisfied with it.
I'm very glad to see that it is not abandoned.

I'm actually using e16 as the window manager in session managed by mate (gnome2) or xfce4 (I'm replacing marco/metacity or xfwm4 by e16).

Recently, I upgraded from e16 v1.0.0 (latest e16 package available in Debian) to v1.0.15, on my system running Debian Jessie (testing). While v1.0.0 works well, I see hangings with v1.0.15 after some time of use when quickly changing areas, using key bindings. Screen completely freezes (for instance gkrellm monitors do not update) and controls block for several seconds before coming back to normal. Eventually, e16 finally crashes after several freezes.

I've been trying to track down the e16 version which introduced that problem, but tests are difficult to reproduce/automate. (I've been trying to script the area moves with eesh, as well as with xdotool, but only manual tests reveal the problem).
In the end, my tests seems to show the issue appeared after v1.0.11.001.
Also running e16 alone (without the mate or xfce4 session) does not seem to show the issue.

Do you think this could be fixed ?
I'd be happy to provide more information if asked.

Best regards,
Pierre
