Bug Description
I installed Ubuntu 12.10. Since then compiz burns at least 8% of CPU constantly. It makes fans go nonstop and decreases usability of Unity because of the noise.
Sometimes I accidentally trigger another/similar bug and compiz uses at least 25% of CPU making the desktop laggy -- processing a keyboard event takes too long.
I can reproduce this problem either using nouveau or nvidia drivers. This problem doesn't occur when I use GNOME Shell instead of Unity.
What information do you need to find the root of the problem?
