Public bug reported: This driver update makes (official) Chrome very laggy for me. While lagging, it causes sound and mouse movement to glitch out; the whole machine feels hung up. Other applications feel laggier, but it might be imagination. The Chrome effect is real and serious.
There's some discussion of this in various apps for various people on the nVidia forum: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1029484/linux/-various-all-distros-numerous-performance-amp-rendering-issues-on-390-25/1 Running Chrome with `--no-sandbox` significantly improves the state of the Chrome issue for me, as suggested in that thread. chromium-browser and Firefox do glitch slightly, but nowhere near as badly as official Chrome. I haven't seen any other issues raised about this on the Ubuntu tracker, certainly none against the driver, which is where I first thought to look. Steps to reproduce, for me: 1. Install official google-chrome-stable from Google. 2. Visit Google Maps: https://maps.google.com/ 3. Enable Satellite, or Birds Eye view. Whole machine appears to stutter and lag. I'm running a desktop desktop 1050Ti, a very popular card. i3wm (i.e. no compositing). btrfs /home.
