I must admit that if I had not tested this on a slower machine than the 
Pentium IV, I would probably not have noticed the difference.  On the Celeron 
2.8 GHz, the difference is quite clear.  And if you consider that this game is 
supposed to run fine on a 300-500 MHz computer . . .

The following results are from the Celeron.

In Wine 0.9.19, Settlers IV consumes around 65% of the CPU when I let it alone 
with the console window on top of it.  If I start scrolling around, this usage 
increases to around 96%.  X and wineserver use almost nothing (they are not on 
the list most of the time; the most I could see X using was 0.3%.

In Wine 0.9.15, Settlers IV also consumes around 65%, but this usage does NOT 
increase if I scroll the map, which sort of explains why the game is slower 
when scrolling between the old and new code.
In 0.9.15, if I mouse the mouse, X usage goes from 22% to around 15%, and 
wineserver usage goes up from around nothing to 1.3%.

Still, scrolling in 0.9.16+ is much slower than in 0.9.15-.
