Confirmed again. Even with the latest unity in precise and the latest development code for unity 6.0, the dash takes perceptibly too long to open after the super key release. ** Changed in: unity Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 906021] Re: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy
Accessing the Unity menu, is such a common task, that this menu should be cached or pre-rendered, so that there is absolutely no noticeable lag after you hit your super key. It literally takes 2 or 3 seconds for the Unity menu to appear after hitting the super key. I remember back back when Windows didn't cache their start-menu. Every time you'd click it, it had to access the hard drive before it could display it. Later, they cached that into RAM, and it made start-menu navigation more instant. When I'm launching an application, I hit my super key, and then I have to wait for the Unity menu to come up before I begin typing. This annoyance has finally grown to the point that I'm willing to write this bug-report. All efforts should be made to cache/pre-render this menu, so that the displaying of it will be instantaneous upon user initiation! I want my computer to always assume that my very next task is going to be to hit my super key and display the unity menu, and I want it to be geared toward making that happen instantly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Also, in my opinion, even 1 second is way too long. 100 milliseconds, however, is acceptable. This could be accomplished with pre-rendering and RAM caching. The current performance feels swap drivey! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 906021] Re: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy
Sorry, I need to mention one other thing. I do notice that it is faster after the first time you access it. For me the very first time (after a reboot) takes about 2 or 3 seconds. Thereafter, it takes 1 second (which to me is still too long). I'd like to see, as part of the login process, this become pre-cached /pre-rendered, before the first time I ever go to the menu. This will have a great perceptual speed increase to everyone who uses Ubuntu. This is my number one performance enhancement request for Ubuntu, and that is why I'm emphasising it so much. This CAN be done. Even for people who have slow hardware, if designed right, this menu can be instant. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

This is kind of a vague bug report... without tangible measures or error messages or something, it's going to be hard to say for certain what the problem is exactly, or to know when it's fixed. But anyway... If it is indeed a mesa problem, well I've posted a PPA with the 8.0.3 mesa which you could test: https://launchpad.net/~bryce/+archive/mesa-803 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Was the fix for bug 942634 in Unity 5.8 not enough to solve this? Nop, seems that it's not unity problem, it's ati old card's drivers buggy and laggy. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/906021 Title: Opening the dash or alt+tab it is very slow and laggy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/906021/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
