Title:
Dash performance decreases over time, requires Unity restart
Status in Unity:
New
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Upon first logging in, bringing up the dash is very fast and I get a
fluid animation both when opening and closing it. Typing in the search
box is also very responsive.
However, as time goes on, I'll suddenly notice that it is no longer
behaving well. When opening it or closing it, I'll only see 2 or 3
frames of a choppy animation. Typing in the search box can have as
much as a 1-2 second delay and is rather awkward to work with.
Opening CCSM and toggling the Unity plugin solves the problem. As
such, I've no reason to believe that anything else is to blame. I've
installed no extensions and have only used CCSM to change a few
keymappings (e.g. I've not played with any effects such as the dash
blur). I've experienced this problem across multiple stock installs so
I can only imagine others are affected as well.
I'm using the open source ATI drivers for my ATI 6850; I've not
installed the driver recommended in "Additional Drivers" as it
actually reduces performance in Unity (although it's much better if I
use Unity 2D).
I tried to match this up with an existing bug but nothing seemed to
fit particularly well. Hopefully I'm not alone in experiencing this;
it really makes things feel unfinished and clumsy unfortunately.
