[pluggo] resizing and repainting on Windows

In the following thread, I discussed my woes of initial offsets of a 
bpatcher not being honored in Live, when the plugin is initialized 
without being auto-opened:

To work around this problem, I moved the element I was resizing upon 
plugin initialization up to the main patcher, and out of the bpatcher.

This worked, but now I have a new problem, on Windows - whenever I 
resize that object in my plugin dynamically (the resize is 
manipulated by a user control), the *whole* plugin gets redrawn for 
each resize.  On a slower windows machine (1.4 GHz Pentium M, 512 MB 
RAM), it's pure agony to watch each user interface element getting 
redrawn.

Although my Mac machine I'm testing on is much faster, it really 
doesn't seem as though the repainting is occurring at all on the Mac.

Is there any solution for this problem?  I can take the time to try 
and come up with a strippe down example if it will be helpful...
