I confirm that disabling vsync reduce cpu usage of compiz (35 -> 8 while scrolling for compiz). But Xorg use always a lot of cpu, so the global cpu reduction is not that spectacular.
The only disadvantage I see is when I move a windows (not as smooth). Other animation like "scale" mode are unchanged. -- 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/compiz-core/+bug/803943/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
