[Bug 843383] [NEW] lag in compiz after a short period of idle

 

Public bug reported:

I see this quite plainly with rotate and desktop based viewport switching, (scroll on desktop), where after a short period of idle there is always an initial  lag when switching desktops, after which all is normal till next idle period.
A more generic case  - 

Open any non maxed window, a terminal will do
Grab and move the window, it does so easily and smoothly
Do nothing for about 30 -40 secs
Grab and move the window again, there is a small lag and stickiness to the movement, after a sec or 2 compiz 'catches 'up and goes back to normal
