Correct.

Question:  How do I trace/report the slinky scroll?

To demonstrate, open an xterm.  Reposition the xterm (grab the top bar 
and move the xterm left or right about 1/4 its width).    The xterm is 
redrawn from the top down, taking on the order or 1 second.

Alternately, open an xterm with a 1000 line buffer.  execute ls several 
times to put several hundred lines in the buffer.  Scroll up (grab the 
scroll bar and drag it up).  The text in the xterm is displayed like a 
slinky scroll.

This effect is not present with kernel 3.2.0-38-generic.  But, is 
present in kernels 3.2.0-39-generic and later. At least all I have 
tested, up to and including:

 > uname -a
Linux P9X79 3.13.0-031300rc6-generic #201312291935 SMP Mon Dec 30 
00:37:05 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

With kernels 3.2.0-39-generic and later, top shows Xorg using 70% to 
100% of one CPU when demonstrating the effect.

With kernel 3.2.0-38-generic, this is 20% to 30%.

Title:
  050d:0237 [ASUS P9X79 PRO] The usb driver appears to fail

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is a Ubuntu kernel regression as the last known good kernel is
  3.2.0-38.

  I have a Belkin Components F5U237 USB 2.0 7-Port Hub.
  I have a USB 3.0 hub connected by a 3.0 cable to a 3.0 port.
  I have used this hub for several months with no problem. When I try to access a device, avrisp2, with avrdude, the hub shuts down and I have to reboot to restore it.  avrdude works Ok with USB 2.0 ports.
