[Bug 1032187] Re: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time
I see very similar issue, but with Core i7 Sandy Bridge, Intel HD Graphics 3000 built in, which makes me think - this is nothing to do with NVidia, but rather with Compiz. The desktop effects like moving between virtual desktops is buttery smooth and the suddenly it goes very jerky and slow. It stays this way, until I go into CCSM and disable unity plugin, then re-enable it back - it is buttery smooth again.

[Bug 1032187] Re: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time
With the new 304.43 drivers, the issues are still there. Glxgears now reports that it runs in sync with the monitor refresh rate (60FPS). This issue is driving me nuts! Nouveau is also not a proper option for me, since the whole desktop experience looks seriously stretched. The only work around I found so far is letting glxgears run in the background. Please guys, let me know what you will do with this bug! As far as I can see I did all the requested things to provide additional information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032187 Title: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1032187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1032187] Re: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time
I finally found some time to test some other drivers. With NVIDIA 295.49 drivers the same "drop in performance" issues appear. When running Nouveau, the issues are gone. Glxgears reports around 650 FPS with Nouveau. With nouveau the desktop looks streched, but I have not looked into that further yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032187 Title: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1032187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1032187] Re: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time
Interestingly, I notice the following behavior in gnome classic without effects (gnome-fallback): Glxgears always gives me around 26000 to 29000 FPS. However, response of the GUI is sluggish some while after login. E.g. while typing this message, letters lag behind, appearing on screen in bursts approximately after half a second after I have typed them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1032187 Title: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1032187/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1032187] Re: Major OpenGL performance degradation over time
I can confirm that the bug is also present in an older version of the nvidia-graphics-drivers, since I have used an older version in the past. I am pretty sure it was 295.40. I was hoping that the 302 drivers would have fixed it, but obviously they don't. I will try the nouveau drivers at a later moment. I also noticed something when I was testing all these different sessions. Usually the bug has appeared after some time of NOT using my pc. Can it be related to my monitor being switched off? It does not happen every time the monitor goes into standby (I can't reproduce it that easily), but it seems to be correlated. In the xorg.0.log I also see some lines like indicated below, that appear after monitor standby (repeats several times with different code): [251458.928] (II) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Display (Samsung SyncMaster (DFP-0)) does not support NVIDIA [251458.928] (II) NVIDIA(GPU-0): 3D Vision stereo.

apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected precise ** Description changed: I have a fully updated Ubuntu 12.04 x64 installation with Nvidia driver 302.17 enabled. The system contains an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 video card. The problem I notice is that hardware acceleration stops some while after log in. Immediately after reboot, GLXgears reports up to 3000 FPS. After a few minutes to hours, hardware acceleration stops, which is e.g. noticable by a sluggish response from the user interface. E.g. typing an e-mail becomes impossible, since the letters appear too slow on the screen.
