[Bug 996343] Re: Game performance is choppier with compiz enabled (not unity)
Hi, I hope this is the right bug report to comment on :) For me several games still run really slowy in Unity, but run okay in Unity 2D or on a seperate X-server. Recent examples are Dustforce, Oil Rush and Jamestown. For example Oil Rush with ultra/high has 53 fps in the main window on a seperate X-server but only has 33 fps and very laggy mouse cursor under unity. Dustforce and Jamestown are not even 3D-games and have very simple graphics but are very slow in Unity. Both run really smoothly in Unity 2D or on a seperate X-server (ctrl+alt+f1, log in and then startx /usr/bin/ck-launch-session /opt/jamestown/Jamestown -- :1). I also tested: - Gnome Classic with effects: Same issue as with Unity 3D - Gnome 3 Shell: No problems The cause for the problem could also be the proprietary nvidia drivers. For example Jamestown and Dustforce on my main PC (Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz, GeForce GTS 450) have performance problems with Unity. But on my laptop (Dell Studio 1558 i3 with ATI 5740, I think) both games run okay (didn't test Oilrush, as the download is very big). And that's a bit surprising, as my Desktop PC overall should provide a lot more gaming performance than my Laptop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996343 Title: Game performance is choppier with compiz enabled (not unity) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/996343/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 996343] Re: Game performance is choppier with compiz enabled (not unity)
This bug should have a high priority. With Valve wanting to put their chips into Ubuntu, Unity out of the box needs to be able to keep up with the others. Looking at these benchmarks: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1210beta_desktops&num=1 This IS NOT the case. When running fullscreen opengl applications, there needs to be a way to disable desktop effects or something that will get the framerate to where it should be. Otherwise I could definitely see new users thinking, "I'll give Linux a try." use Ubuntu, have a terrible gaming experience (Due to low frames) and either go back to Windows, or buy an Apple PC. I know I sound a bit crazy, but Linux's big chance is coming up, and we have to be ready if we want this to take off. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/996343 Title: Game performance is choppier with compiz enabled (not unity) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/996343/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

That fix is not in any PPA and won't be for a while. First I found a theoretical problem with it, then I found it causes real regressions (occasional minor damage artefacts).

Another idea: This could be the known problem with glFinish (in the default rendering path) slowing down rendering. glFinish was introduced to eliminate tearing. To work around it try CCSM > Workarounds > enable "Force full screen redraw (buffer swap) on repaint". That will use the simpler glXSwapBuffers code path which usually provides faster frame rates and much better smoothness. And without tearing. We have several ideas in mind for ensuring the latter is enabled by default in 12.10 (see bug 901097).

[Bug 996343] Re: Game performance is choppier with compiz enabled (not unity)
** Description changed: When compiz is enabled, all of my games have a slight jag to them, skipping a few frames every second. This choppiness can range from merely annoying to headache-inducing, depending on the game. This is not Unity-specific as running a unity-less compiz session still presents the issue. Furthermore, this is not an Nvidia binary issue as the nouveau driver makes no difference. Disabling vsync or manually setting my refresh rate makes the issue worse. Also, desktop animations appear to be smooth with no problems (though they may just be too short to really notice). Game performance is butter-smooth when I use Ubuntu 2D. Not a hiccup to be had. For an example of the choppiness, please see the video. Watch the clouds. Since the video was recorded at only 15 fps, the choppiness is slightly higher than what I actually experience. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/996343/+attachment/3136325/+files/bug.ogv + + While this game and many others (including almost all windows games + played through wine) are this choppy, there are a certain very few games + which retain butter-smooth play.
