What I often get, for good measure, is the systems hang / freeze *before* the logout confirmation dialogue box appears. After the delay, the box appears, you click "Yes", the logout proceeds as normal. I raised this issue months ago, back at 2.0, or thereabouts. Both systems are running Gnome-2.x with default Metacity / settings. Got no answer to my post.., left it at that.
