I think I might have it figured out. The problem was happening when I was trying to sort my giant list of VM's into folders. I noticed the more I had in folders (and less just loose in the inventory) the better the problem got. I have all the VM's in folders now and the problem is gone. I have a feeling that everytime a VM changes states, green->yellow, red->green, etc, the list is refreshed and hense the annoying flicker. Bit of a long shot but that's my theory.
There is a few ways to get around the rename problem but I'm really looking for a solution. Or a cause!
I'm half wondering is it a memory shortage on the vCenter machine. About 80 hosts, 400 VM's, a mix of 3.5 and 4.1 running on 2008R2 with 6GB of RAM.
Thanks for the input but it's possible even worse that way.

Hey guys, I've an odd usability problem that's killing me. The contents of the inventory in vSphere client is always refreshing and/or flickering. It wasn't really a problem when it was at version 2.5 but now it's upgraded to 4.1 U2 and it's preventing me from renaming objects. I start to rename and the inventory refreshes which cancles the rename. I could get around it with a fast rename+paste but that's a pain. Problem is present on multiple workstations and on the vCenter server itself, which rules out network problem I had originally suspected.. Any help would be great, thanks. Dave
