Title:
  glxgears performance drops to 1 frame per second, but still reporting
  60fps

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  So I was running glxgears, a tool to measure performance of the graphics card.
  It was showing animations in maximized size quite nice, but when I took the console window I used to start glxgears and moved it over the animation and kept moving the performance rate dropped.
  While moving windows the framerate seems to be down, but the reported frame rate in the console was always like 59-60 fps.

  Also when using ALT+TAB to switch to other applications I notice
  performance drops in glxgears, (like only a few frames a second, you
  could definitly count the frames in a second.)
