Bug Description
This is ongoing issue that I've been having since 12.04. Now I'm on 14.04 the issue still persist.
On my netbook which runs on Intel GMA 3150 graphic video, if I log into my account while secondary monitor plugged in, it's almost guaranteed that compiz process will go wild and take unusually high cpu usage than normal, rendering desktop to crawl even when doing simple thing like hovering mouse pointer over launcher icon.
However I'm not seeing this problem if I plug the secondary monitor only after Ive already logged into my user account.
I've been doing that as workaround to this problem though it's not very convenience having to unplug and replug the monitor at every boot up/reboot.
Can someone please look into this?
