I do not see a real performance improvement if I disable effects from appareance panel. I can see some improvements if I reduce the width of firefox window: in this case the cpu usage during tab switching drops from 70-80% (really high) to a more affordable 40%.
It seems that firefox has to reload the rendered page from system memory to the video card memory. Strange given that the card has 256Mb of ram, I expect it to be cached on the card memory. -- 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 subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
