I take that back. I've queued up the timer priority fix in my PPA since it's already been accepted for upstream compiz. Could take hours to be built and published though...
compiz (1:0.9.6+bzr20110929-0ubuntu6vv4) oneiric; urgency=low * Fix timer scheduling priority. It was set too high, which starved compiz' own event loop of X and GLX events. This caused all sorts of tearing, stuttering and hang-related bugs. -- Daniel van Vugt <vanv...@gmail.com> Mon, 05 Dec 2011 15:34:10 +0800 compiz (1:0.9.6+bzr20110929-0ubuntu6vv3) oneiric; urgency=low * Improved the frame timing fix (previous commit) to also avoid excessive lag when doing fullscreen repaints. This means you can once again use the compiz workaround "Force full screen redraws (buffer swap) on repaint" if you want. -- Daniel van Vugt <vanv...@gmail.com> Mon, 05 Dec 2011 14:41:03 +0800 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888039 Title: Gradual degradation in desktop performance.
