Confirmed that this is still a problem in 12.04. It's definitely the same as http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=98869. When a pinned tab starts flashing, CPU usage jumps. To bring it back down again, you have to select the pinned tab, then select a different tab.
There's no fix yet and no option to stop pinned tabs from flashing when their content changes. The workaround is to unpin the tabs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863192 Title: Compiz using large amounts of CPU when running Chrome To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/863192/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
