I'm experiencing this on a Vostro 1500 (basically an Inspiron 1520) with the following specs:
Core 2 Duo 7300 2GHz 2GB RAM Geforce 8600 GT 256MB Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 x86 CPU usage spikes up when switching tabs/opening windows in firefox, which translates into a slowdown (and sometimes, music hiccups). I've found I can stop the problem by disabling the compiz window decorations and then re-starting the X server, which has led me to believe it's a compiz issue. Enabling note that re-enabling the decorations resumes the problem. I'm not done testing the other plugins, but none of the others so far appear to cause the slowdown. -- Slow switching tab in firefox/opera when the desktop effects are enabled in Gutsy Gibbon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/144216 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
