Could you please work on fixing this bug? Your group works with Unity, and this is kind of one of the bigger bugs.

thanks for your bug report. Is that still an issue in Ubuntu 12.04? Can you please test that and let us know?

Confirmed with 12.04. The problem seems to be the active blur.

Using the compiz benchmark plugin, I found:
1. Scrolling the dash is fast (60 FPS) if there is no window updating behind it.
2. Scrolling the dash is terribly slow (15 FPS) if there is a busy app redrawing behind it (like glxgears).

15 FPS on a quad-core i7 with HD 3000 graphics should be considered a bug, I think.

Hello Ryan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unity into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/5.16.0-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Seems fixed for me with -proposed enabled. I had a flash video playing under the full screen dash scrolling application icons. Screen was at 1080p on a core i7, onboard GPU.
