[Bug 858771] Re: Slow/laggy scrolling after a short period of time

 

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it
would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers
of the software by following the instructions at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please

Title:
  Slow/laggy scrolling after a short period of time

Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After a short period of time,  scrolling becomes slow and jerky in
  Gedit or anything that uses the Gedit component. Typing text can also
  be affected after a slightly longer period of time causing characters
  to appear sometimes 2 seconds later after each key press.

  I've not experienced this before with 11.04 or 10.10. I've not yet
  noticed this with any other program while this happens. Firefox etc
  all seem to respond normally.

  Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
  Description:	Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
  Release:	11.10
  Codename:	oneiric

  gedit:
    Installed: 3.1.6-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 3.1.6-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 3.1.6-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  Expect: the scrolling and typing to be smooth and responsive.

  Actual result: Xorg CPU usage immediately increases to 60-100%,
  document jerks up/down.
