I read that but it does not explain why the other method is 3-4 times (!) 
slower. Especially, because the sockets in /tmp/.ICE-unix are owned by me!
So there must be an if-then-else code somewhere that causes this behaviour. 
I'm not so familiar with sockets but isn't a normal user also able to create 
sockets like the needed ones? If yes, this behaviour is a bug in X.
