Pako, this bug was Ubuntu-specific because it was caused by Unity. Compiz in general has numerous performance problems that we are aiming to fix in time for Ubuntu 12.04. Early testing suggests that Compiz in Ubuntu 12.04 will be "extremely fast and responsive". Though the only difference between Compiz in Ubuntu 11.10 and Mandriva I can suggest is bug 861061 which is a performance issue caused by Unity.
You can read about some of the performance issues we aim to fix here: Bug #92599: Incorrect (low/stuttering) refresh rate with NVIDIA driver Bug #755841: [sandybridge] Graphics tearing when playing video Bug #798868: unity video tearing when moving windows in oneiric with nvidia-current Bug #876575: Moving windows between workspaces causes them to "jitter" / jump around Bug #880707: [regression] Visible tearing is worse in 11.10 than 11.04, even when "Sync To VBlank" is enabled, but only when Unity is active. Bug #888039: Gradual degradation in desktop performance. Bug #891744: compiz, stuttering window movement Bug #773861: Moving windows is very laggy with Compiz Bug #861061: [regression] All apps have a lower frame rate under Unity. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/687567 Title: Global menu causes white "flashes" when scrubbing/moving with mouse fast over menus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/687567/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
