[xmonad] Re: Issue 400 in xmonad: LayoutHints don't respect windows' hint changes without changing the workspace state

Comment #5 on issue 400 by liskni.si: LayoutHints don't respect windows' hint changes without changing the workspace state http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=400 I noticed that some apps (e.g. urxvt) update the hints more often than needed (3 times for each size change, even if the hint only specifies size increments, with urxvt) which slows down xmonad considerably. I had to change my hook to only refresh with certain apps. Perhaps some kind of caching the last hint state and checking if it changed may be a clean solution.
