I'm running 310 now, and the differences between it and 304 are slight at best. Unity seems sluggish. Resizing windows is slow. For example, if I resize a terminal window and let go of the mouse, it takes a good 2-3 seconds before the window resizes. A large CPU spike is seen when this happens. -

Switching between windows, moving windows, operating menus produced huge large spikes in CPU utilization. I have since switched to the Ubuntu-x-swat PPA as the source o
