Texture binding takes 16 ms on nvidia :) I agree that this certainly isn't *the* excuse for not having live resizing but it is *an* excuse (keeping in mind that it used to be a /lot/ slower, even with g-s and metacity back when the decision was made to not do this).
I'm looking into our XSync support now. I've done through and made a pass at optimizing the decor plugin as much as possible, so its already quite fast, but just dependent on how fast the clients repaint their windows.
