Compiz does use polling to find out when it has to redraw the screen. And it uses even more CPU when it finds out it does have to redraw the screen. That is the code I am looking at right now.
However compiz CPU usage will be much worse if you have changed any of the settings in comment #43. So everyone reading this, please do check those settings. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/803943 Title: compiz consuming a lot of cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/803943/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
