I think the biggest problem with this bug is Ubuntu is using Compiz for it's window manger in Unity - I think almost everyone here is seeing a slightly different problem, and perhaps, everyone who thinks this bug affects them is encountering a separate bug. For example, I only saw the problem when some polling scenario was happening - for example, if I have a pinned tab in Chrome that gets a notification, causing the tab to pulsate, instant CPU spike. Perhaps that wasn't the only thing causing it, but if it wasn't; separate bug (IMHO, anyway).
I'm not experiencing the bug any long because on the affected system, I reloaded Windows 7. However, I have Ubuntu loaded on an HP Laptop and a Dell Mini 9 netbook, both running Unity, and neither seem to be affected by this bug. Compiz is very inconsistent it seems, and I really wish there were a better solution for the Window Manager in Unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803943 Title: compiz consuming a lot of cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/803943/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
