Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
Environment: this bug is made with "ubuntu-bug" so I assume the relevant
versions and packages are attached.
The symptoms are:
- Dragging windows across the screen stutters visibly, intermittently halting
for up to half a second. CPU usage is very high at those points, the X (Xorg)
Process specifically.
- Restoring a window from its maximized state is similar, the window is reduced
to its "normal" size but it takes up to 2-3 seconds for the window itself to
redraw and (probably more importantly) for the desktop to redraw or refresh
I've been able to exclude most typical graphics causes such as the
nvidia driver or Xorg itself by trying the same in KDE which does not
exhibit the problem (same machine, same config).
In fact I can narrow it down specifically to Nautilus: when I go into
gconf-editor and set the property
"/apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop" to false (unchecked) then the
problem goes away. So in effect, only when Nautilus is drawing the
desktop does this problem occur.
