[Bug 772177] Re: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow
I'm having absolutely no issues with Alt-Tab in Unity 3D on my end. Perhaps it depends on the video driver in use?

[Bug 772177] Re: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow
In my opinion, this bug belongs in the "One Hundred Paper Cuts" list. It was marked invalid for that list in May of this year, but the alt-tab functionality has been completely reimplemented since then, so it's worth re-evaluating now. See my comment above; the responsiveness should not be measured in terms of the compiz setting, but on the actual latency between the keystroke and the alt-tab visual menu appearing. It's as high on 1000ms on my machine, which handles other window management changes with perfectly acceptable speed. Something is broken. People switching from windows will notice this the first time they hit alt-tab.

[Bug 772177] Re: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow
I am seeing this even after setting the window popup delay to zero. I think the configurable delay is actually a red herring for the real bug, a lack of responsiveness when hitting alt-tab. On my machine the lag between the keystroke and the window appearing is about 400-500ms. Other compiz-related keystrokes, such as the expose view, something starts to happen /instantly/ once the key is pressed.

The user experience is degraded FAR MORE by the 0.2 second delay than it is by the flicker of the window (which I do not experience when setting the delay to 0). My googling has indicated that the solution that many people opt for is to disable compositing completely. That should be an indication that the default should just be changed to 0 seconds. The perception when you're using Ubuntu on a new computer with a high end graphics card is that something in Ubuntu is just fundamentally broken when a feature as familiar and ubiquitous as Alt-Tab is slow. Please just change the default Static Application Switcher > Behavior > Popup Window Delay to 0 seconds. The flickering issue will be resolved when Ubuntu moves from X.org to Wayland. In the meantime, everyone will benefit from a snappier, more responsive desktop experience.

[Bug 772177] Re: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow
This is the main reason I always disable desktop effects/compiz/unity. When I'm working I alt+tab very quickly. Most of the times I don't even need to see the window switcher, I keep switching between the last 2 windows. The problem is that the way it's done here not only you need to wait for the window switcher to appear, you also need to wait for the fancy selection to complete the slide animation in order to actually switch, otherwise it stays in the current window. So, in order to actually switch you need to wait 0.5 seconds, which I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that is unable to tolerate it. Gnome Shell has this fixed this btw, they don't wait for the animations to complete in order to switch windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772177 Title: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/772177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 772177] Re: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow
As it's already the second branch with the exact same patch, let me copy here why setting from 0.2 to 0 isn't the solution: Indeed, if you alt + tab between two applications very quickly, you will then see a flickering dialog appearing. The delay is there to prevent that and it was discussed in natty as part of a design decision. we already tried to change the popup delay from 0.2s to 0.0s, but design came back because it's flashing when you just alt + tab quickly. See the debian/changelog history: compiz-plugins-main (0.9.4-0ubuntu4) natty; urgency=low * 03_default_options.patch: - revert the ubuntu change from 0s to 0.2s delay back to avoid flickering - show other window when doing alt-tab and ensure that the settings are according to LP: #736938 compiz-plugins-main (0.9.4-0ubuntu3) natty; urgency=low * 03_default_options.patch: - change default option from 0.2s delay to 0s for compiz staticswitcher plugin - don't get a close animation on gnome-screenshot (LP: #93234) - Change + e to + s for switch workspace (trigger expo mode) in the classic session as in unity (LP: #723273) - deactivate mipmapping in staticswitcher as it can make alt Tab very slow (some seconds) on some hardware (LP: #684843) That's the reason why we reverted the change made in 0.9.4-0ubuntu3 as a design decision. That's why I will have to disapprove this change. ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Triaged ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu) Assignee: Elvis Dominguez (elvisd79) => (unassigned) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772177 Title: Alt+Tab "Feels" slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/772177/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I cannot think of any reason for having a 0.2 second delay before showing the Alt+Tab window. It is just a bad default. The default value for popup_delay should be 0.
