Everything from gnome-weather to xchat does it. There are no strange themes or other oddities about my setup. I've tried a clean user as well. I also notice a distinct pause whenever rhythmbox changes tracks. It lags the mouse cursor and any video output (i.e.. moving a window while the track is changing will blur that window, then reappear normally after rhythmbox is done). What could possibly cause these? Some slowness with whatever library reads gconf is all I can think of for the preferences problem, but what about rhythmbox?
