in reply to perl/Tk: How to "release" a button immediately after it's pushed?

The problem appears to be that you're holding up the GUI thread. You need to return ASAP from your event routines. If you have anything that takes a significant amount of time, run it in a different thread. It's a frequently-encountered issue, so google and/or super search will help you find some specific examples.
