Thanks for your suggestions again. Some other questions now that I've tried, if I may :) I've tried running mutter alone, however I am not able to see a performance downgrade since I cannot go into the overview. My main concern is that the zooming animation gets slower, but with Mutter I don't get the zooming animation and I can't notice the downgrade (I have to say that some lag is also shown when changing workspaces using shortcuts, but that applies to Gnome Shell as well). I also tried using the kernel perf tool. I run two perf records of the whole system when experiencing lags and when lag-less. The windows that were open were the same. The two reports look almost the same, if somebody wants to see them they might be found at: https://dl.dropbox.com/s/nkl5llmht85o81z/fast.data?dl=1 https://dl.dropbox.com/s/96qcbbhklb2d1a8/slow.data?dl=1 If you have other suggestions I am all ears. Suggestions for a better profiling to help me filing a bug are very welcomed as well. Getting a slow overview is painful, especially when the zooming works beautifully before leaving the laptop for lunch.
