The x11perf results are a known issue, but not obviously significant. (How many apps do you have that use the X NoOperation request?) Despite our belief that the "slow" requests have almost no impact on real applications, we are working on improvements in this area.
However, I believe the bug you actually experienced with metacity is identical to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10644, which Josh Triplett and I believe is fixed in libX11 git. Can you confirm that current libX11 from upstream git fixes metacity's performance for you? Assuming it does, could the libX11 maintainer for Ubuntu please stop building libX11 without XCB? -- Sluggish rendering since xorg 7.2 update https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/88815 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
