Title:
Xorg causing 100% cpu load
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
EDIT3: I'll withdraw this bug report.
Primary problem here was the combination of "xfce-compositor" with an slow
graphics card (mga).
Disabling the "compositor" setting in xfce did it for me. Disabling showing
window content on resize+move makes things faster on this graphics card, too.
EDIT2: it seems that even the cpu graph in the top bar produces enough load
to get Xorg with Matrox G450 (PCI) busy.
Without cpu graph responsiveness is still far slower than with 13.10.
EDIT: after deleting almost every file+directory which starts with "."
in my home directory, this problem has vanished, but overall
performance seems slower than with 13.10.
Kind regards,
Jochen
Dear reader,

reaction is slow and mouse pointer is flickering.
