I don't know why this bug has been marked as invalid. "Every screen change triggers full screen XDamage event" This is exactly what happens and it didn't used to be this way. I run software that depends on damage events and it has now ground to a halt. Yes, a damage event doesn't mean that every single pixel within the area has been updated, but there's a big difference between a little margin for correctness and just invalidating the entire screen all the time.

Frankly, I've had it with whatever compiz quirks get introduced with every new version of Ubuntu and I've switched my WM to KWin.
