I use F17 and Xfce. My PC is very old (Athlon) so I see a delay when switching to a thunderbird window but it's sometimes less than a second, sometimes maybe a couple of seconds.
So specially if your computer isn't as old then maybe you have a video driver issue? Just a guess that might be wrong.
So the issue exists but for some reason you're having it exaggerated.
