Title:
  OpenGL "hello world" windowed vsync app brings unity to its knees

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1. Create a basic hello world OpenGL app, e.g. one that draws a single triangle to the screen.
  2. Use windowed mode with vsync on
  3. Try alt+tabbing or activating between different windows and the opengl window by clicking.
  4. Notice how laggy and slow it is.
  5. Try a different window manager besides unity such as xcfe4
  6. Notice that this problem no longer exists.
