Windows Terminal version

1.13.10336.0

Windows build number

10.0.22000.0

Other Software

No response

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open terminal v1.13 in a non-maximized mode
  2. drag it around your desktop, or click on arrows to show animations
  3. easier to see with a high refresh rate screen(I use a 144hz one)

Expected Behavior

performance for window dragging and animations shouldn't change over versions

Actual Behavior

When dragging my terminal from version 13+, it seems to be "lagging" terribly. No other software shows this behavior.

I couldn't upload a video to github(file too big, tried to capture at a high refresh rate & resolution so it's more obvious) but here's a gfycat link exemplifying: https://gfycat.com/gargantuanteemingiaerismetalmark
Please watch it in HD so that it's clearer to see.
