I was wondering - why are the animations in Ubuntu not nearly as smooth

it is not nearly as smooth as it would be if it were in Windows. There
is no reason for this is there? Hardware should not be a problem, since
Windows 7 and Windows 8 are both running on my PC, and definitely have
smoother animations than Ubuntu does. So I think that the animations in
Ubuntu should be as or almost as smooth as the animations on Windows.
Any ideas on how to do this, or should I file a bug? Thanks!
Explaining what do you mean by "smooth" would be nice.
If you mean frame rate, I see no noticeable lagging or choppiness
while using the workspace switcher. If you refer to aesthetics,
you need to give more details.
Sorry about that - I was in a hurry composing the email! The frame rate
while windows are open. I guess the adjective to use here (could not
think of a better one) would be that the animations for workspace
switcher are a little "choppy". There is no lagging, but it would be
nice and easier on the eyes to have a nicer animation, one that is
smoother. From the way I see it, workspace switcher animations keep
getting nicer every time a new version of Unity/Ubuntu is released. If
you look at the Windows 8 start screen and the Ubuntu workspace
switcher, even though they are not the same animations, the Windows 8
start screen after login definitely has more frames than the workspace
switcher does. Thanks!
