I've been running 14.04 for a few days now and the cpu usage at idle hovers between 22-45% ,about 95% with chromium open, 50% with nautilius, 90% WITH DASH for gods sake, 60% with compiz and about 85% with ubuntu tweak running. And the lag was so horrible i had to disable almost all animations and effects AND reduce all animation times to 50 ms AND animation time step to 2..
For a contrast idle cpu usage was 5% in 12.10 and 2% in windows xp..Ive tried almost everything,nothing works.. I use: wipro little genius WLG7B1630V core2duo @2 ghz 2 gb ddr2 ram @333mhz 512 mb SiS vga graphics with vesa: 6330 drivers Any workarounds guys?? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1293384 Title: Compiz CPU usage dramatically increased in Ubuntu 14.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1293384/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : compiz@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
