Same here on Ubuntu Jaunty and NVIDIA GT9800 card with latest NVIDIA
drivers. Emerald package version is 0.7.2 but I always noticed this
behaviour :(

It is clear to everyone that the bug depends on windows width / shadow
radius. But personally I wouldn't rate this bug as a low priority bug,
since it is THAT much time it exists.

[Bug 574069] Re: [Lucid] Loading nvidia-settings hurts compiz performance

2010-05-03 Thread Sixpounder
Another workaround is a script like this to launch at startup in place
of nvidia-settings:


#!/bin/bash
sleep 5
nvidia-settings --load-config-only

This doesn't kill compiz performances, however I use Google Chrome so I
didn't tested firefox, I'll do it this evening and report here asap

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
  
  As per this forum post:
  
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1469528
  
  In a nutshell, when nvidia-settings --load-config-only is run on startup
  (which is a default action), compiz performance becomes rather terrible.
  This has been confirmed on both fresh install and upgrade.
  
  The workaround is to disable the action on startup. However, manually
  going to the nvidia-settings program will bring compiz down to its knees
  again (at least in my case: I believe another person had no problem).
  
  ProblemType: Bug
  DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04
  Package: nvidia-settings 195.36.08-0ubuntu2
  ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-21.32-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2

+  SHELL=/bin/bash

+ manager with sync_to_vblank, loose bindings enabled and indirect
+ rendering disabled. Load nvidia-settings --load-config-only as a startup
+ application

[Bug 574069] Re: [Lucid] Loading nvidia-settings hurts compiz performance

2010-05-06 Thread Sixpounder
Idea: I noticed that gnome desktop takes more than it used to in
previous releases. At first, I tought it was nautilus pre-loaded
instance that was slow to load. But now I think it trough, it is much
more possible that it is COMPIZ who takes so long to load, much more
than in previous releases (at least on my pc). With loosee bindings
enabled (which is required for nvidia chips as far as I know) may it be
possible that bindings to opengl libraries are screwed if nvidia-
settings are applied BEFORE compiz finish to load? That would explain
why my "rapid fix" that waits five seconds before calling nvidia-
settings --load-config-only works... and it would mean that maybe this
bug's related package is something else and not nvidia-settings by its
own. What do you think?

15 seconds is a EXTREMELY long wait for an application like compiz to
start IMHO
