I can confirm slow Firefox scrolling on Gmail. on a Dell Latitude D630 laptop (Core2 Duo 2.2GHz, 4GB RAM) with Nvidia Quadro 135 (128mb). Scrolling is so slow that I stop turning the mouse wheel and Firefox tries to keep up for 20 more seconds (!!!) and sometimes it turns gray (not responding).
Some interesting notes: 1) the problem does not occur in the version of Gmail without Gtalk. (older interface). 2) the problem occurs with other browsers too, but they're all based in Gecko. 3) problem occurs with both compiz enabled or disabled. 4) 3D graphics work like a marvel (for example, Desktop cube). I have enabled the Nvidia restricted drivers version 177. I hope this bug to be fixed soon because it is such a pity for Linux users to have such a bad experience while Windows users have Firefox working smoothly and very responsively. -- Slow performance with Gmail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217580 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
