Coming over from bug 759813, where both myself and another user are still affected on 12.04.
** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Description changed: When launching applications from the Unity Launcher versus the Classic desktop. Launch times are slower. + + Startup animations also often fail when using the launcher. When + launching via a shortcut on the desktop, startup animations are smooth. + With the Launcher throbber, however, they're often choked and make the + window merely appear metacity style. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769023 Title: [launcher] Pulsing animation while launching applications uses a lot of CPU and slows down application startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/769023/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
