[Bug 1221837] [NEW] [13.10] Unity plugin makes Compiz unusable slow

  Thread Previous • Date Previous • • Thread Next 
Public bug reported:

If the "Ubuntu Unity Plugin" in Compiz is enabled the GUI is unusable
slow:

* switching virtual desktops takes about 1 minute after selecting the new desktop,  with a few seconds between each animation step 
* moving window is lagging 2 or 3 seconds
* Dash and HUD need > 30 seconds to become visible

If I disable the Unity Plugin in CCSM without changing anything else
everything is fine and snappy. Enabeling the Unity Plugin again makes
the system slow again.
