Ubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop (i386)
100MBit network/Thin-clients, 1GB link to LTSP server

All thin-clients were at least PII 500MHz w/256MB RAM (older Compaq iPaqs)

Latest version of Tuxpaint:

This has been an issue since Gutsy (7.10). I recall talking with one of
the developers a long time ago, he seemed to see something pretty basic
as to at least speed things up a *bit* that had to do with SDL
refreshing or something (it's been a LONG time so forgive me if I'm wrong).

HTH,
