Hi Martin,

Please try playing with the snap delay slider in the preferences. Does this affect the latency of the flickering? If so, then this is related to the snap delay mechanism (see the comment that pop-ups when hovering above the slider).

Inkscape only snaps when the user has stopped moving the mouse (or touchpad). If it hasn't seen movement (i.e. below speed threshold) for some period of time (the delay), only then it will snap. Likely, when using a touchpad you are more likely to drop below the speed threshold? Inkscape will snap each time you drop below this speed threshold.
