I "fixed" that by simply using some other cursor file from the ones that come with 7: "aero_busy_xl" or "aero_busy_l" The exact frame where it stutters is different here.

My PC can be considered top-notch (i7 920, 12 GB RAM, nVidia GTX 275). Maybe it's a driver issues...

If the mouse cursor is supposed to animate like this, why aren't the larger versions affected or affected differently? Why is this animating circle not stuttering when used on the welcome screen or in IE8? Are people who say it’s not a bug serious?

The cursor itself as well as the preview in Mouse properties animate smoothly. I don’t see this behaviour on my copy of Win7 x86 RTM.

On Vista, it feels like it's just spinning without doing anything. The slight lag makes it feel more like a machine that actually does something. It's like waching the hourglass turn around rather than watching it trickle down endlessly, not going anywhere. Am I the only one who prefers it with the lag?
