Yes, that fixes it, but it still seems to me like something between
stupid and wrong behaviour of the X code.
Of course without XSync there might be rather a lot of outstanding
request after some time, but (I paid attention this time) "hanging" for
whole 3s every 6s is a bit exaggerated (or they have to change the XSync
man page from "Client applications seldom need to call XSync" to "Client
applications must regulary call XSync".
