[Bug 1355196] Re: unity crashes on login, compiz cpu and memory intensive

 

For what its worth, this is an older thinkpad (T400).  It has older
intel graphics chipset.  I'm attaching xorg.0.log for more information.

Title:
  unity crashes on login, compiz cpu and memory intensive

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Recent upgrade and reboot/re-login left me with a generally unusable compiz/unity.
  On login, the desktop icons move back and forth several times, I believe this correlates with ~/.xesssion-errors 'unity main process ended' messages like:

  upstart: gnome-keyring main process (7364) killed by TERM signal
  upstart: at-spi2-registryd main process ended, respawning
  upstart: at-spi2-registryd main process ended, respawning

  upstart: at-spi2-registryd main process ended, respawning
  upstart: at-spi2-registryd main process ended, respawning
  upstart: at-spi2-registryd respawning too fast, stopped
  upstart: unity7 main process (7477) terminated with status 1
  upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
  upstart: unity7 main process (7910) terminated with status 1
  upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning
  upstart: unity7 main process (7939) terminated with status 1

  Then after login unity/compiz is basically unusable.
  compiz has

  top shows compiz eating anywhere from 40 to 80% cpu, and having 300M resident memory.  Additionally, Xorg is sitting 5-20% while I'm typing this in firefox.  The only application I have open at the moment is gnome-terminal and firefox.

  My previous attempt to use chromium left its window un-resizable.
