Neil:

I have a very similar setup. I wanted the panel functionality without
the whole GNOME beast. I haven't noticed the sluggishness you report,
though. I start the panel in  .xinitrc:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# 
Esetroot  /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/asclassic/backgrounds/marble.jpg
#
rclock &
emacs -i -T "Local_Emacs" &
Eterm  -v --font 8x16 -O --foreground-color black -T "FIRST ETERM" -S gray --login-shell &
panel &
exec sawfish --load /home/jim/.sawfish/lisp/personal-menu.jl
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It works well for me. 

I'm running X 4.0.3 from testing, and version 0.99 of sawfish from
testing. Version 1.0.55 of gnome-panel, also from testing,
