Two applications I used to run regularly when they were on gtk1.2 were ported to gtk2.0: pan and edonkey2000-gtk.
I'm not using them anymore, because their rendering became painfully slow: scrolling the lists down takes several seconds to refresh on my 300MMX laptop.
I had similar experience with xchat 1.x (based on gtk1.2) and 2.x (gtk2) - text scrolling in 2.x version was noticably slow, when i used it on 200MHz pentium. Even new irc messages caused visible redraw when old messages were scrolled up by 1 line.
