Comment 2 for bug 533216

my CPU is Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q9300 @ 2.50GHz.

I found better way how to reproduce this "bug". First Open Language Support window and maximize it. Then open some other window (e.g. gnome-terminal) and move it in front of language selector. You can see that list of languages redraws very slowly. I tried it with some other windows which has large list of items (synaptic, update-manager) and the redrawing of lists was very fast. Or when you move mouse fast over the list of languages higlighted row lags behind mouse movement because the list is unable to redraw fast enough.

Language list seems to be custom drawn widget ... so i assume there is something slow in the redraw function.

In the "language for menus and windows:" list I got 18 languages ... two active and other inactive (gray).
