There is a chance the degradation in some cases is caused by the composite rendering timer drifting out of sync with your monitor. And it does, I know that for certain. When this happens, tearing becomes more visible and the frame rate can go down to half of what it should be.

It will be worth trying at least. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888039 Title: Gradual degradation in desktop performance.
