Been a while, guys.
I haven't had this issue since forever, so this has been fixed in the
pipeline. If anyone still has a problem on a newer version of Ubuntu
(11.10, 12.04, etc), please just report a new bug. Closing.

I've never used the wobbly windows plugin.
In my experience the amount of open windows determines the performance problem.
No windows and it seems to be working fine, but even 1 window results in a
noticeable frame drop.
And I'm using 5 desktop all packed with windows and virtual machines causing
Unfortunately not even the final version of 10.10 fixed this issue and it
remains crippling the desktop usage.
I would consider this a major bug because Ubuntu uses the desktop effects by
default.
Even the upgrade to the 260.xx driver from nVidia did not fix anything.

[Lucid] Loading
Upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04 yesterday and encountered this problem with
a GeForce 8500 on AMD64. Running compiz I see very poor performance.
Installed the latest nvidia driver for my card from the vendor, with no
effect. Also tried the install libgnome command, with no effect. Finally
bailed and
Yeah, thought 10.10 fixed this but it hasn't. Still bad performance...

Hello,
The following worked for me.
aptitude install libgnome-window-settings1=1:2.30.0-0ubuntu4
I didn't try any of the other fixes.
I am on an Asus UL80JT with integrated Geforce 310M and Core i3 running
Lucid x64. Stock kernels and everything. After that command and a
reboot, compiz acts
Okay, I'm on Maverick right now. There is no problem.

Yes the command works! But is doesn't help. No difference in performance
of Compiz (Still lags tremendously, more windows seem to make it worse).
Checked it on a nVidia Quadro FX 3800M with a Core i7 920XM.

Hm. Have you tried with loose bindings? 'compiz --replace --loose-
bindings'
Also, I'm just making sure, have you also updated nvidia-settings with
the graphics driver? I looked and it seems that nvidia-settings doesn't
really depend on much so it's possible it may have slipped through.
I really
Nope, but id did just now, but the performance stays the same.
I did upgrade a small laptop which is using a nVidia 8400M GS chip to Meercat
Alpha 2+ and it's performing way better..
Don't know exactly what changed (yet), but is seems to use the same Compiz and
nVidia driver.

Maybe Lucid's Xorg has a fault in it that has since been fixed.
Depending on the circumstances, I may have an opportunity to get a test
OS online sometime this week. If I do, I shall try updating with the
xorg PPAs.
Thanks again, Reason.

I've tried the nVidia driver 256.35 and Compiz 0.8.6 to no avail.
As for libgnome-window-settings, I've got version 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1 installed.
Where can I get the old package?

I agree with u Chauncellor. This is suppose to be a constructive to help with

Using Ubuntu without Compiz degrades the desktop from an usability perspective
to a Windows XP level.

To those unhappy: You agreed to install proprietary drivers on your
computer, and Ubuntu can do very little about what they give us. Reason:
You call them great drivers. 80 percent of the code is cross platform

Idea: I noticed that gnome desktop takes more than it used to in
previous releases. At first, I tought it was nautilus pre-loaded

more possible that it is COMPIZ who takes so long to load, much more

Compiz effects loading takes a *very* long time after I login. The desktop
background appears, and gnome-do gets launched immediately, but the menu at the
top of the screen isn't present until the effects start to run,
15 seconds is a EXTREMELY long wait for an application like compiz to
start IMHO

I cannot confirm that Compiz needs long to load. Since I needed to start
certain applications after Compiz, I wrote a script for that, and the
applications called in it start about 0.5-1 second after the panels. I
have also moved the nvidia-settings line in it now:
This has started happening for me after the update on 5h May 2010 - I
think there was an update for compiz together with new kernel 2.6.32-22.
My compiz goes up to 80% cpu after moving any window, everything is
sluggish. This does not happen when I turn off visual effects. I have an
nVidia GeForce
There seems to be a strange trick though - when I turn on Compiz
benchmark, it suddenly becomes much more responsive.

I have just done:

I suspect this package (its version 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1) caused my compiz to go
berserk after upgrade on 5th May.
Hope that helps.

I don't think that the firefox bug is related to this. I'm using

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
