[Bug 996008] Re: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.
This worked for me. I had a unused Fiber NIC still installed and removed it. FYI: NIC Had LSI Chip (L2A1157) and I have a Nvidia Quadro FX 4800/PCIe/SSE2 graphics card installed. Seems to be some type of Hardware & IRQ issue. Problem has been gone for last 2 days. Previously this issue would appear within half hour or so after logging in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996008 Title: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.

I also experience this problem. I've been having it for a while. Logging out and logging in again temporarily fixes the issue. Affects both KDE and Gnome.

[Bug 996008] Re: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.
I'm having a similar issue in Saucy Salamander. After using my computer for a while, GUI slows down somewhat, not unusably slow, but animations are signficantly slower. Even the Window side by side snap animation shows a little lag, I begin to see the fade effect in icon right click menu in launcher bar where I did not notice it before, dash becomes slightly stiffer, etc. Dmesg | tail shows no irq messages for me, but hitting unity --replace solves the problem, until it occurs again. I like Unity but the desktop seems to be a mess with lots of users experiencing bugs either with the dash or with performance, etc.. I hope this issue is fixed soon. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996008 Title: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.

[Bug 996008] Re: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.
For the record, I have tried booting with the irqpoll option, does not help. Doing echo 'options nvidia NVreg_EnableMSI=1' /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf as recommended in that post you linked does apparently not activate MSI for nvidia as intended. There was no file with that name in that directory, but several otehr nvidia* files (nvidia-current-updates_hybrid.conf, nvidia-current_hybrid.conf, nvidia- graphics-drivers.conf). I did not know which one to add that option to, if necessary. However, using dmesg | grep MSI to check for enabled MSI, the following drew my attention: hda_intel: Disabling MSI hda_intel is one of the modules which conflicts on irq11, I think (/proc/interrupts says on 11: ohci_hcd:usb2, snd_hda_intel, nvidia), so I'll further investigate. I have a theory that on precise, the MSI for the sound driver has been disabled for some reason, creating this conflict in the first place. I have to be a bit careful about wildly changing system settings, as this is a production machine and I can't currently afford to lose it for an extended period of time if I have to nuke the system and reinstall or whatever. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996008 Title: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.

[Bug 996008] Re: GUI slows down significantly after random period of time.
my /proc/interrupts shows ohci_hcd:usb2, snd_hda_intel, nvidia on the affected IRQ11. Does that mean I can choose to have either usb, sound, or a graphics card? I can hardly disable two of those three... Does anybody know something to do (a command to run or whatever) to alleviate this error if it occurs?

Did some more research today and came across this post: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/disabling- irq-16-a-879964/ Checking my /proc/interrupts, I have a firewire module on IRQ16 alongside the Nvidia driver; I believe this is from my PCI soundcard.
