As requested I attached my output of the unity_support_test (all fine!). Since quantal release, CPU load while fully idling has greatly improved to values below 0.05. Fan noise may partially be caused by the forced switch from fglrx to radeon with less effective power management.
X & compiz tasks stay first class cpu consumers esp. spiking on UI activity. Significant lags (3s+) remain i.e. on opening the dash obviously due to the transparency. ** Attachment added: "output of the unity_support_test" https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1067349/+attachment/3426286/+files/unity_support_test-output.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1067349 Title: After drop of Unity2D in 12.10: How to tackle high load of Unity/compiz on netbooks?
