Ok thanks..

Looking around, I came up with this, which reduced it:

#NVidia

...Add latest drivers PPA, and upgrade:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-
settings

(I tried Additional Drivers: "post-release updates" didn't work for me)

#COMPIZ

...Added following Compiz PPA and upgrade:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:vanvugt/compiz

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

...Or add via a source manager:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/vanvugt/compiz/ubuntu oneiric main

deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/vanvugt/compiz/ubuntu oneiric main

...then update and upgrade compiz

(the source is found here:
https://launchpad.net/~vanvugt/+archive/compiz)

#Install Compiz-Setting-Manager:

(this is found in the Ubuntu software centre)

#COMPIZ SETTINGS: Open and navigate to:

...Composite setting:

DETECT REFRESH RATE: (UNTICK)

REFRESH RATE: (DOUBLE YOUR REFRESH RATE)

...Mouse Position Polling setting:

MOUSE POLL POSITION: (1).

...Snapping Windows:

SNAPPING WINDOWS: (UNTICK)

...Move Window:

#Configuring The Right Driver

The next thing to do is to make sure that your machine uses the correct
driver. To ensure that, we are going to blacklist the nouveau driver
first. Open a terminal and enter the following to do so:

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

...At the end of the document, add this line:

[...]

blacklist nouveau

...Afterwards update your initial ram file system by entering this into
a terminal:

sudo update-initramfs -u -v

...Then check:

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

...Find the Device section and make sure the driver is set to "nvidia".
It should look somewhat like this:

[...]

Section "Device"

Driver "nvidia"

Identifier  "Default Device"

Option  "NoLogo"    "True"
EndSection

[...]
