I did some more testing and now I am sure the problem is not unity/compiz specific. My guess is that it is related to Xorg itself.
In Unity2D, just moving a small window around brings the Xorg process to consume 20% CPU. In a XFCE session, moving such a window makes Xorg consume over 50% (!) CPU. Xorg should be added to the affected packages, imho. -- 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/+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
