Cyclops, It's still feasible that xorg is to blame, but it sounds like metacity could be stealing focus from your apps, or it could be an EXA rendering bug. Try changing back to XAA to see if it helps, and try kwin (or another WM besides metacity) to see if this behaviour continues with a

Hmm, I downgraded metacity, metacity and metacity-common to 2.16.3-0ubuntu2 from Edgy, but it's still slow. Perhaps there's certain rendering paths that are slow in xorg that metacity happens to use; all I know is that performance is excellent with kwin. Maybe I'll try some x11perf tests on my

Hi, I ran a complete set of x11perf on first system (Celeron 2.8Ghz w/NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 using nv driver), using the herd 4 livecd, and the version installed on my drive (herd 5 with updates, including the new xorg 7.2 drivers). I used the same xorg.conf, disabled screensavers and monitor

Hi Sebastien, I've opened a bug there, but I focused more on performance profiling. I'll expand on it and explain the problem in detail (I had just linked to launchpad). Here it is: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10173 -- Sluggish rendering since xorg 7.2 update

Timo, Upon further investigation I think I may have found the real culprit - metacity. As I had kdebase installed on my system, I decided to try kwin --replace within GNOME, and performance is back to normal! Maybe the problem is specific to metacity and not xorg at all (a reasonable hypothesis,

I can confirm this bug on two systems running latest Feisty, (using nvidia and i810 drivers respectively). Switching between totem-gstreamer and totem-xine makes no difference; gstreamer-properties will show Xv output correctly in test output, but totem never respects the videosink selected, and
