[CentOS] Clunky Xorg with latest 6.7 upgrade?

Is it just me or does Xorg/Gnome seem slow and clunky to any other desktop users once the 6.7 upgrade is done? $ uname -a Linux CentOS501.homegroannetwork 2.6.32-573.1.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Jul 25 17:05:50 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ cat /etc/centos-release CentOS release 6.7 (
