I think you are seriously in error about guessing what is inefficient!

Believe me, creating and managing a hundred X windows requires ORDERS OF 
MAGNITUDE more communication to the server than an event every time the 
mouse moves 1 pixel. Besides it probably turned on mouse tracking for 
those individual windows anyway!
