[Bug 1411560] Re: Graphics performance degrades with time in 14.04

 

Hi Christopher,

It is happening again right now. I've tried to close Google Chrome in
case it was causing the issue, but it seems like something is broken.
Everytime I click on a window, or some graphic change happens at Unity
level the system becomes irresponsive for a few seconds. For bigger
things like closing or starting a program seems like it takes even more
time. Seems like allocation and disposal of resources is taking suddenly
more time than it should.

Kind regards,
Roberto

Title:
  Graphics performance degrades with time in 14.04

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After several days using the system the graphics performance degrades.
  I cannot find any information in syslog or dmesg. It takes an awful
  amount of time to open a new window, and during that time the mouse is
  trapped into one of the monitors (cannot move to the other one). Also
  I've noticed that the Unity notification bar freezes and I cannot
  access any of the icons there, and the clock is just frozen.

  HDD, memory and CPU load seem normal. The only solution I've found is
  to reboot.

  Thanks in advance.
