I think the biggest problem with this bug is Ubuntu is using Compiz for
it's window manger in Unity - I think almost everyone here is seeing a
slightly different problem, and perhaps, everyone who thinks this bug
affects them is encountering a separate bug. For example, I only saw the
problem when some polling scenario was happening - for example, if I
have a pinned tab in Chrome that gets a notification, causing the tab to
pulsate, instant CPU spike. Perhaps that wasn't the only thing causing
it, but if it wasn't; separate bug (IMHO, anyway).

I'm not experiencing the bug any long because on the affected system, I
reloaded Windows 7. However, I have Ubuntu loaded on an HP Laptop and a
Dell Mini 9 netbook, both running Unity, and neither seem to be affected
by this bug. Compiz is very inconsistent it seems, and I really wish
there were a better solution for the Window Manager in Unity.
