Comment 5 for bug 872960

Yes, you're right. I noticed it happens without this effect as well.
Dragging windows around feels hard and it's like some frames are skipping.
There's another computer I tried and it worked smoothly, so it must be
something about our video cards.

Just for the record, mine is a "VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation
82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)" . I'll see if I can get
info about others, where the problem doesn't happen.

Strange thing is that the problem also seems to be there in Gnome-shell.
Anyone can reproduce this on Gnome-Shell too?
