Just wanted to add a comment for people following this bug, that for me using Ubuntu 12.10 (august 11th) , it seems fixed. I checked this using an OpenGL (SDL controlled) window I had troubles with in 12.04, it no longer has the slow down in the current 12.10 alpha. It also fixes that application not switching to fullscreen properly.
I cannot vouch for precise performance numbers compared to a non compiz environment, but at least from my experience, visually the slowdown is definitely gone, applying to both a windowed and fullscreen OpenGL application. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/988079 Title: Much slower OpenGL frame rates with unityshell loaded, than plain compiz To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubutter/+bug/988079/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
