I find 'gnome-session' buggy.

For quite a long time, I've been running without it. When I was using
the panel, I just added 'panel &' to my .xinitrc(actually, not that, but
an equivalent). I set my background in the same script. I set everything
that 'gnome-session' would normally do manually, and I havn't looked
back since. I notice that the system is generally more responsive.

However, it should be noted that things like mouse settings and keyboard
repeat rates can't be set in the Gnome Control Center if you don't use
'gnome-session'.
