[Bug 473855] [NEW] [Karmic] Compiz very slow with extra effects enabled

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Since I upgraded to 9.10 (a clean install over a 8.04) compiz with extra
effects enabled is very slow. Windows take seconds to open, hanging
everything. Menu's pop up and disappear slowly. Switching to another
hangs everything. Clicks take a long time to register. I have a Dell
Studio 17 and everything used to work fine before.
