Public bug reported:

Compiz uses a crazy amount of CPU, continiously, even with nothing
showing except the Launcher and a terminal:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND  
  11143 sladen    20   0  521m 185m  13m S   24  6.2  80:45.20 compiz     

the side-effect of this is that the machine runs extremely hot, and
battery life is impacted.  Compiz used less CPU/energy in Ubuntu 11.04
so this is a regression.
