some more info on this issue: just open 5-10 terminals. Everything else is closed. and see how the xorg usage goes up. It appears to be not in terminals issue, just ANY window. More opened windows cause more cpu usage on xorg.
5-10 opened windows is enough to cause lags. killing compiz brings xorg down to the usual 5% But Unity is useless without compiz. Probably this issue is on nvidia card+compiz since I didn't notice it on intel. I don't use nouveau, using the proprietary drives. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/737454 Title: xorg high cpu usage while using top command _______________________________________________ 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
