Hi Alberts,

I tried applying the latest 13 commits from the test-3-18 branch on top of Xenial's metacity.

If my benchmarks were correct, it made things even slower.

glmark2 score:
xenial-metacity --no-composite: 311
test-3-18-metacity --no-composite: 154
xenial-marco --no-composite: 902

I.e. now it's 6 times, rather than 3 times, slower than marco...

Can we use marco instead? Doesn't it additionally have CSD support?

Or, could end users of gnome-flashback-session decide to install and use marco instead of metacity without bumping into major issues?
