[Bug 180055] Re: (hardy, xorg, compiz) xorg becoming temporarily unresponsive after latest compiz upgrade

[Felix Rabe]

Thanks for your quick response.

For this run here, I only had Gnome + Terminal (bash+top only) + Firefox
(blogger only) running.

At first, on loading the page, firefox-bin went to about 50%, then this:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                       
 8691 root      20   0 70908  14m 6932 R 78.8  3.8   0:11.12 Xorg                          
 9034 fr        20   0  174m  47m  23m S  7.6 12.6   0:08.12 firefox-bin                   

Then Xorg started going from about 50% to about 90% while firefox-bin
remained constant:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                       
 8691 root      20   0 71644  14m 7184 R 89.8  3.9   0:37.35 Xorg                          
 9034 fr        20   0  175m  48m  23m S  8.0 12.8   0:12.59 firefox-bin                   

This is with https://www.blogger.com/start on the visible tab.  As soon
as I open another tab in Firefox, e.g. by typing Ctrl-T to open a new
tab, the CPU is immediately freed from the heavy Xorg load and I can
work normally:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND                       
 9034 fr        20   0  176m  49m  23m S  8.0 13.1   0:35.62 firefox-bin                   
 8691 root      20   0 71900  15m 7352 S  4.0  4.0   1:42.45 Xorg
