    That's not lag, the system is just getting/hiding your taskbar. I'm assuming you're talking about doing this with a dock?

    ohh no docks. i just show/hide taskbar and i notice the cpu utilization is very low, but it looks as if the system is hanging, then its fine. just wanted to make sure that this wasnt a problem for the future.
