Based on comment #15, I'm going to close this Fix Released since it's no long unusable. I agree that running Compiz/Unity on llvmpipe is not fun and miss Unity 2d for these types of systems. ** Changed in: unity Milestone: 7.3.3 => None ** Changed in: unity Status: Confirmed => Fix Re

I just tried the current daily built in a VirtualBox on a fast T4200 (software rendering) as well as natively (RS880 Gallium rendering) on an Neo K350 Lenovo Edge 11 [Mobility Radeon HD 4250]. Speed improvement is indeed drastic, so 'unusable' is no longer appropriate. Though 'making fun to use',

Roman, Software-based rendering can be quite fast. And the way Compiz renders the screen is using buffer swapping (in 0.9.8 and later) which is implemented efficiently in most cases using page flipping. Page flipping is efficient even without hardware rendering. (Showing my age) I remember when w

The reason why llvmpipe is slow is because it is a completely software- based rendering solution, the whole desktop is rendered in software and then pushed at once. A change of a single pixel is causing full desktop redraw on every frame. I have filed LP:1098744 to track disabling the animations in

I made the same observation as benbuntu on VirtualBox on a Lenovo X220 (Core i7 2640M @ 2.8 GHz, 12 GB). As windows fade in/out the progress is so slow you see every step in the fading process. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to U
