[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 448678] Re: Karmic: ThunderbirdXorg hog CPU

2009-12-03 Thread Chris Pappas
I am experiencing this problem on my home computer: Fresh install of
9.10 Karmic (GNOME), Athlon 2400+, 1GB DDR, Radeon All-In-Wonder 9600xt
with Visual Effects turned off (None).

Thunderbird is very sluggish, user interface is drawn slowly and there
are 1-2 second delays before the interface responds when using any
buttons or other elements. Network throughput seems to be OK, it's no
faster or slower than usual to send or receive messages with attachments
etc.

I have another partition on this same computer with Ubuntu 9.04 but no
problems with Thunderbird - it performs quickly and there are no delays
or UI slowness.

On my work computer: 3.00 GHz Intel C2D, 1GB, Intel integrated graphics
(945 series I think?) with Visual Effects turned off (None), Ubuntu
9.10 upgrade from 9.04, I haven't noticed any problems although this is
a much faster machine in general.

I will attempt the Xorg.conf thing and post my results. Are there any
log files etc. that I could post and would be helpful for diagnosing and
fixing this problem?

2009-12-03 Thread Chris Pappas
After implementing Christoph's and jooloop's solution, Thunderbird's
responsiveness has improved significantly. This seems to have done the
trick for me.

I agree with Rob and Martin about this being over the heads of many
common users. I'm willing to provide any necessary information to help
resolve this issue for others.

2009-12-03 Thread Chris Pappas
I just noticed that after making this change, Firefox has increased
responsiveness now as well. I was noticing some brutal lags when
scrolling websites (in particular Slashdot!) and that seems to have
improved (it's not perfect but now it's usable).

Those are some very useful settings it would seem! Perhaps they should
be implemented for most users as well?
