And, you didn't mention how much memory Unity/Compiz is using. Out of those 800 MB, it might be using around 100. Other tasks are using the rest.
So, its not to blame for this. 7% CPU usage isn't bad. Moreover, if you're running out of RAM too fast, and you have a less amount of RAM, you might want to try Unity-2D or some other (lightweight) DE. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/915636 Title: Unity D.E. is very heavy, slow, and consumes a lot of RAM and CPU To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/915636/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
