Public bug reported:
I noticed that the default theme of ubuntu studio 10.10 is very slow on
a Toshiba Portégé R500 laptop (GMA945 video, no desktop effects, 64 bit
install). I noticed this while watching the updater app while moving the
popup window with the progress info. For some reason it is very strong
for this one application. Instead of lossing too many words, I will
attach two screenshots. Both are taken short after moving the popup
window, causing redraw of the window now being exposed. The default
theme shows serious lag there, while the Clearlooks theme is not that
slow (you don't see anything out of the ordinary on that screenshot).
Anyhow, I think I should mention this ... as such redraw "performance"
makes the desktop feel way more sluggish than ... well, I'll stop before
I write down some insulting comparison. Since the choice of theme
affects this, there might be something to do to fix that behaviour.
Though I am puzzled: How can you make something like simple white text
on black ... slow? Especially compared to the other themes?
