[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 973506] Re: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed
I'm running 310 now, and the differences between it and 304 are slight at best. Unity seems sluggish. Resizing windows is slow. For example, if I resize a terminal window and let go of the mouse, it takes a good 2-3 seconds before the window resizes. A large CPU spike is seen when this happens. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973506 Title: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/973506/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 973506] Re: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed
I doubt it is an Nvidia issue for these reasons: 1.) I've installed 12.04 on my mom's quad core, and Nvidia proprietary is _probably_ not installed there. 2.) This happens in Firefox, but NOT Chromium(on the same web page, namely cuttherope.ie) 3.) According to the top command(I can post the top screen shot if you insist) the problem is this: Chrome distributes the work between several threads(both Chrome and xorg threads are busy) hence utilizing more cores for the same job. In fact, Chrome uses more total CPU than Firefox for this job, but it is very smooth.) Firefox, somehow, seems to dump the whole task onto xorg(and a single thread, apparently.) I have Ubuntu 10.04-LTS on another 2 core box. The same version of Firefox(16.0.2) is running there. HOWEVER, Firefox(10.04-LTS) renders that same web page very smoothly. Like Chromium(12.04-LTS) it distributes the work, apparently, evenly between the FF process and xorg, i.e. several cores.) It is strange: if the FF versions weren't the same, I would surely report it to the Mozilla people.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 973506] Re: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed
The bug sure seemed like an nVidia issue to me, especially with the older GPU 8400M GS I have. I didn't even have Firefox running. Switching between windows, moving windows, operating menus produced huge large spikes in CPU utilization. I have since switched to the Ubuntu-x-swat PPA as the source of my nVidia drivers and performance is much better. It still feels more laggy than it should, but it is usable now.

Judging from the fact that people have better luck with open source drivers and that it's been almost 4 months with no fix in sight, is this an upstream problem? nVidia isn't exactly known for jumping on driver bugs on Linux (the first thing I had to do when installing 12.04 was upgrade the driver to 302.17 before I could even get an accelerated desktop (2D worked fine).

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 973506] Re: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed
With high X CPU bugs, *typically* the cause ends up being a client program rather than X. The reason is that X is just a server and its load is driven by client requests. So if some client is stuck in a loop making X calls, that can show up as high CPU on the X process. However, with nvidia who knows. It's rare but not unknown for there to be driver bugs that cause high CPU on X. As a general rule, with bugs against nvidia, unless it's a packaging issue or something that quite definitely is wrong on the Ubuntu side, or something you already know is fixed in a newer driver version, the bugs should be reported upstream at the nvidia forums. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/973506 Title: Huge processor's loading by Xorg process when nvidia proprietary drivers installed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/973506/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
