I've got similar problem (the same but with little differences). I remember having it in some older Ubuntu as well. Recreating user was the solution in the past.
After boot compiz.real process uses all the available cpu time (~99%). I'm unable to debug or even use the appearance settings form as the performance is terrible. I always just kill the compiz.real process first and then change the appearance setting. I use None desktop effects as a default. If I change it to any other settings - the compiz seems to get restarted and works good. I will try to capture the following: strace -p `pidof compiz.real` > ~/compiz.debug next time I start the computer. Bigal - you may try it as well. -- Compiz.real 90%CPU/memory increasing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456374 You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
