It may be related. I only know that some people reported that changing 
the font and/or the theme via the "Select Theme" tool solved the ui 
slowness. It looks you are referring to the same tool in the other 
thread.

slow load time, but the program otherwise runs fine. As Derek already 
replied this is due to an additional integrity check that was included 
in the 2.6 series. Personally I'd rather be sure my data is fine than 
having a blazingly fast load time. But having said that I am not ruling 
out there is room for improvement here.

I've encountered something similar a long time ago as well with other 
hardware. Perhaps changing the theme could fix this ?
