My only complaint about KDE is flicker. It is everywhere, especially when refreshing icons on desktop, in konqueror, when switching tabs etc.

I've never had that on any version of KDE I've tried, even those I've compiled. That's definitely not something I can reproduce.

Same browsers work very fast on windows. Safari which is based on khtml is damn fast at scrolling too while konqy is too slow rendering the same page.

No I haven't had that problem - the exact opposite. When I first used Suse 10 I used Firefox as my primary browser, and it is excruciatingly slow. I'm not just talking about redraw or load time, it just takes ages to render any web pages. Firefox on Windows by contrast is fine. The only web browser I can feasibly use on Linux right now is Konqueror. It loads web pages very fast, and the difference is like night and day.

I've had a bit of lag with some applications like Konqueror, using tabs and things like that, and other times it won't happen. However, in my experience it's about ten times better than running a GTK-using application.
