Even without additional animations, a compositor can give you
a) a working back buffer for all windows
b) limited vsync / tearing avoidance for X rendering
c) translucency
which are much more important for a snappy, polished feel anyway. Compositing
is not only about eyecandy!
I'm glad this is fi
In lucid you can disable the animation plugin again. I still don't agree
you should do so though. If your system can't handle it you should
probably just use the metacity compositor as your system won't be able
to handle scale, expo, and the other various effects either thus there
is no advantage t
I agree that the default behaviour is unacceptable. my laptop is quite
old and the animations make it less instead of more usable.

What the hell? Who on earth thought it was a good idea to force
animations down the users throat, especially when:
a) Animations are slow on certain systems
b) Some people don't like annoying fading/flying/gyrating windows
c) Some people like getting work down without having to wait for useless e
So that is its? You guys wanna be like Windows now? What's essential about
animations effects? I just can't believe it! Now i am really thinking off
moving to another distribution ... for real. I like it disabled, is it ok?
What is even sillier is that you give me the option to disable it, but
This is actually by design. We have a set of plugins we do not allow the
