[Bug 964788] [NEW] bad gaming performance when running compiz (nvida gt-240)

 

Public bug reported:

I was playing Oilrush in Ubuntu 11.10 without problems at the highest
detail level. After upgrading to 12.04 the performance got much worse
and I'm having tearing like artifacts even if I go to the lowest detail
level. The artifact looks like a 400x400px block in the center. I also
noticed this when watching some ProjectM visualizations with Clementine.
These problems do not occur with Ubuntu2D.
