Since the introduction of the close button when Scale is toggled (super+w), the animation is slow on two monitors. One is fine.

Bug Description

Scale was recently updated to include a close button per window.

If I run with two monitors, there is a definite slow down of the Scale animation as I open more windows. Note, these windows could be as simple as a terminal or gedit, it seems that number is important, not size or detail.

When I disable my second monitor, the Scale animation continues to work at what I would consider a normal (read acceptable) speed.
