Same problem here with a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04. Compiz and Xord use a lot of CPU !
I've never been under 10% at idle without anything opened. (1-2% with 11.04) I was running with 11.04 before and everything was perfect. I was playing a 720p video with VLC and my CPU was at about 30% max. Now with 12.04 Compiz itself uses something like 15% so that like 55/60 top CPU for the same video.... With flash, my CPU burn. What's going on? My system is so slow now :( (nvidia card) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989035 Title: Compiz uses more CPU and mem since upgrading from 11.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/989035/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
