Mouse hesitation on a low powered system

I have a little Acer netbook I've set up for travel.  It only has 2GB RAM so I am using a swap partition.  The disk is encrypted except for the boot partition and I'm using LVM partitions within the encrypted partition.  I'm using openbox w/ compton and tint2.  My problem is that when I'm web browsing and I read an article, it seems like the mouse gets swapped out and it takes a while to come back.  I'll read something then when I go to click something else, the mouse doesn't move for a few seconds.  Once it does move, it moves fine.  It's really irritating.  Any way to stop this from happening?

Do you have some powersaving settings that suspends your mouse after a few secs?
If yes, dont do it
