What about the speed for the windows key - tab animations? All those
animations appear to take almost one second. Did you look at those?

In addition, I think you've been using it for long enough you are
conditioned to the slow experience. It might take you a few days to get
used to the fast speeds.

Because of my hardware, it has been something I've only recently been
able to try out, and so I notice the lag. Or maybe you spend all your
time in Firefox and this slow launchpad ;-) and so don't mess with
windows as much as I do. I hate waiting on my computer, and think it is
morally wrong for devices that are meant to serve us to intentionally
slow us down. I'll bet the number of people have asked for 250 ms lag
when *Compiz is turned off* is very small.

As for only being able to do frames in 33ms, can that value be improved?
A video game can do much more complicated modeling and graphical work in
10-20 ms. Maybe if you can increase the frame rate, it will seem more
polished. Perhaps that should be done independent of this. Is the 33ms
hard-coded somewhere? But even so, whether 3 or 10 frames, it is meant
to be subtle. A number of the animations fiddle with the transparency as
well which seems to imply that if you miss it, it doesn't matter --
which is true.

Anyway, as long as people are aware and work to minimize the delays,
I'll consider that progress. Thanks for your time.
