If you have many windows, the hints windows appear onscreen separated by 50ms or so --it doesn't feel instant (my original implementation had this problem, and Caleb noticed it as well).

I'm not sure what is taking the time (probably the accessibility API), but if it's window creation time, you could keep those hint windows around in memory and use them again the next time the hint operation is triggered.
