A further data point: side by side I open two terminals. In one I have `top' running. In the other I do someting to make the terminal screen scroll. In `top' I can see that Xorg's cpu usage converges to 100 %.
#v+ $ while sleep 1 && seq 0 20 | tr \\n \ && echo; do :; done #v- ... for example gives a Xorg cpu usage of 40 %, which is too much in my understanding. -- gnome-terminal reacting very sluggishly https://launchpad.net/bugs/85575 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
