Title:
  [SRU regression] Slight UI lag after updating to Unity 5.16

Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in Unity 5.0 series:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I've been using Unity 5.14. Today, I saw that Unity 5.16 was available
  in the -proposed repository. It greatly improved my 3d, but I noticed
  that things such as typing, dragging windows, using scrollbars, etc,
  have a slight and noticeable delay. I've rebooted to rule out any
  version clash issues.

  Reproduce:

  1) Enable -proposed
  2) Install the new Unity update (5.16)
  3) Restart lightdm (sudo service lightdm restart) and log into a Unity session
  4) Drag any window/scrollbar, highlight text, input text into a field, etc.
  5) Notice that there's a delay between when you perform the action to when the action takes place (you can see the window/scrollbar trying to catch up to your cursor, for example)

  Definitely related to the new Unity version, since I didn't have this
  issue until I applied this update. I haven't made any changes to
  anything graphics-related that would cause this to happen.
