[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#547569: xfce4: desktop slowdown when composite is enabled

Package: xfce4
Version: 4.4.2.1
Severity: normal


 When I enable composite in the window manager tweaks everything seems to run slow. Specially desktop switching (both with keyboard and mouse) as well as window switching with Alt-Tab. It seems that Xorg takes most of the CPU. I am using the NV driver with no xorg.conf file (using built-in configuration). 
 If I disable composite everything seems to work fine.
