Comment 5 for bug 760814

I tried out a few different themes, although most of the time I am using Divergence IV - "A New Hope". Unfortunately, I did not observe any change in behavior. Only changing the window manager to metacity makes everything a lot faster. When running gtkperf with compiz it is about 3-4 seconds slower than with metacity (9 to 6 seconds for 100 iterations).
It is also very annoying that emerald segfaults with compiz 0.9, but that's a different issue...
