Yes,

As someone explained in the bug report (but the bug looks like occuring
in different environments), it takes a lot of time for the xfce-terminal
to be refreshed after a resize of the window or more often when
switching back to a virtual desktop having some such terminals. My
X31 has a ATI chip (Radeon Mobility M6 LY), and Debian Lenny has a Xorg
7.3 X window system. I'm using "ati" driver, with the Xorg config
I've setup for Debian Etch from ThinkWiki tips. I've observed also that
the xfce-terminal didn't use so much CPU, but the X server did.
