  2. Open Wox
  3. Drop Focus
  4. Drag the window of another application

please upload a video, so I can understand your problem.

I am moving the windows at the same speed and rate.

Additional info:
Only occurs when Wox is running, even if I stress my CPU.
The effect very visible when I have a lot of things running.
I assume it has something to do with the transparency effect (several of my programs utilize some sort of transparency effect too, and the lag is lessened when those are turned off).

For now I am just using a regular theme and it seems to be working just fine.

System Light theme has the same problem

Tried to reproduce it here, didn't lag for me
