Hi. Removed transparency (gconf and changing metacity-theme entries ... ) and it's ok now. Regarding evolution-addressbook issue, I have opened another bug. I think the relation was the amount of memory used by evolution, with a lot of swap, and that affecting compiz.

I don't yet understand how evolution-address can make the CPU usage of compiz high. Unless there's a relevant indicator running under Unity (and hence Compiz)? -- 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/1064866 Title: Compiz is consuming constantly 50%-60% of CPU.

Nop. Althought I removed the transparency feature the CPU is high, but I noticed that compiz consuming high cpu is a side effect of another problem. Evolution-address is eating the whole drive, replicating constantly the addressbook under the .cache/evolution/addressbook directory. Considering that my organization has an AD with more than 100k entries, caching the whole GAL is not a good idea. I donĀ“t know why is making new and new directories under that path, each of them with 1 Gb files. That evolution process was consuming a lot of memory making the system to instensively use the swap memory (2Gb phisical + 2 Gb swap). So compiz was using swap space too, making everything impossible to work with. So, basicaly I am trying to change from evolution to thunderbir+davmail to connect through EWS to my exchange ... never understood why not to use ActiveSync. If Android works fine with Exchange (including pictures of people), is frustating evolution or any other Linux email client, can't do it ... -- 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/1064866 Title: Compiz is consuming constantly 50%-60% of CPU.

Can confirm that removing panel transparency brought compiz down to normal CPU usage (from ~40% to ~0%). -- 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/1064866 Title: Compiz is consuming constantly 50%-60% of CPU.

Yep, I have the installation by default. My hardware is almost 4 years old, so no 3D sorry. With 12.04 I didn't have any top unity feature and it was fine for me. I'l check the other bug if there's a way to disable the special effects until is fix.

Hi, done it again as "su". It seems the outcome is the same. I have updated the system with latests packages and remove the performance indicator from the top bar. No it seems working better, although fan is at full throtlle from time to time, and you can see compiz reaching 60%-70% of cpuload. ** Attachment added: "stacks.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1064866/+attachment/3392663/+files/stacks.txt -- 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/1064866 Title: Compiz is consuming constantly 50%-60% of CPU.
