Castbar animation performance often are related to other performance issues. Around one of the last patches, I had an issue where my castbars were updating really poorly - I had attributed it to the new ui changes & performance problems people were having & figured it'd eventually get patched. Shortly after I noticed a number of particle effects were no longer disappearing (tranquility, the light beams in the chess event, and the ground fog in the tunnel to Gluuth).

Turns out there's a bug or something with memory that develops over time, not necessarily WoW related, more OS actually, as this continued through many different play sessions - but I never had actually rebooted my machine. Shutting down the PC & restarting it fixed all the persistant visual effects issue & additionally I noticed all my cast bars suddenly were silky smooth.
