[Bug 764330] Re: [regression] Moving windows lags behind the mouse by 1-2 seconds; appear to freeze when dragging.

 

Good News first:

vv9 is very smooth!

With vv8, I had smooth window movement only on freshly mapped windows.
After being remapped  (like after being moved) the window movement became choppy.
This behavior was similar to my experience with the main and proposed packages.

With vv9 the windows stay smooth even after being remapped!
Excellent work! I really appreciate it!

Bad News next:

Dragging windows around the cube fails in a very odd way.
The cube starts to rotate, with the window, then snaps to the next workspace but leaves the window behind.
The mouse is still able to move the window although they are on different sides of the cube (O_o).
The breakage occurs when windows from the previous workspace momentarily flash on the current one ( bug 876198 )

I suspect that bug has some relationship with the screen redraw issues you've been working on.
I don't want to open a new (duplicate?) bug report, since both the packages and the settings I use are unsupported.
