The duplicate flag is wrong, this bug is about alt-tab being slow in Metacity Compositing (upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504729) while the alleged duplicate is a bug on Compiz.
The one line patch on comment #46 fixes the problem completely and should be applied to Metacity as soon as possible. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 772177 Alt+Tab "Feels" slow -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/299330 Title: Alt+Tab - switching applications delay. slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/metacity/+bug/299330/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
