Title:
  Oscillating speed (of key repeat, animations, time, etc) after upgrade
  to 14.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After my upgrade to 14.04, I rebooted and logged in again. I noticed
  that several aspects, including key repeating, seemed to accelerate in
  their speed over a short period of time, and then at the peak of speed
  (such that, for example, the quickest key press I could manage would
  nonetheless print at least 15 of the key, and the page loading
  animation in Chrome tabs was spinning quicker than the eye could
  distinguish) it would suddenly drop back down to what appears to be
  the base set rate.

  I switched to VT1 and saw this happen there too, so it wasn't merely
  confined to KDE or even X11.

  Upon rebooting again, the problem had vanished. I was encouraged on
  #kubuntu to submit a bug, so here we are!
