Forums -> Multiple monitors -> Transparency and Dual-monitors

I've noticed something recently since I started running apps with Transparency turned on. When I try to move a window (notepad, IE etc) over the transparent app, it seems to slow down and move in jumps.

Does anyone know what I might be causing this?
The effect seems to be much more pronounced when I have my dual-monitors enabled.

System:
Voodoo3-3000 PCI
Voodoo3-3000 AGP
TB1200 w 384M PC133
running Windows 2000 and Ultramon2b6

Transparency is very heavy on your cpu and resources. This is normal behaviour and obviousely with two monitors, since you have double the desktop space, it is even more resource intensive.
