Build 20021022
Linux-GTK

1. Right click anywhere to bring up a context menu. 
2. A blank menu of the appropriate size appears.
3. Approx. 2 seconds later (on my 1.3 Ghz machine) the contents of the menu appear.

The same test on a Windows machine takes approx. 0 time.

This has nothing to do with the actual menu popup code.  Running the SWT 
AddressBook example shows that the menu pops up instantly on all platforms.

Moving to UI.  This is part of a larger performance problem that on platforms 
other than Windows.  It might be SWT related but so much code runs when a menu 
is popped up and different code runs depending on the context that it's hard to 
pin down any single component.

Jared, could you try the SWT example on your machine?
