GLX is not the cause of this problem.  I disabled it in my configuration
weeks ago and still encounter this problem daily.

Based on reports here and in other bug trackers, and my own experience
with this problem, I agree that it is most likely related to load in
some way.  Xinerama itself can be rather resource intensive, and the 2D
performance of the Nvidia drivers is notoriously poor.  This probably
accounts for the fact that it is most often Nvidia users who report this
problem, and that upgrading to a newer, better performing driver appears
to 'fix' the problem.

The upstream report at http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18668
(previously linked by Thomas Jarosch) suggests a problem with animated
cursors may be at the root of this.  This may be worth testing, if
anybody has the time and inclination.
