A screen shot would go a long way in helping with this problem.

Without the screen shot, I would have to guess that the problem is occurring when you maximize the Carbonite map. You can try unchecking the "Minimap docks when map is maximized" and checking the "Minimap hides when map is maximized" options on the "Map Minimap" page of Carbonites options window. You should, also, have the "Minimap toggles full size for instances" option checked.

You could also try using Carbonite as the only enabled addon to see if the problem is caused by an addon conflicting with Carbonite.

It could also be a problem with the instance you are in. I know there is (was?) a problem with Blackwing Descent and framerates when using Carbonite.
