Bug Description

I encounter a issue with Ubuntu now for a long time. When I open a program with Hardware Acceleration I notice that Ubuntu starts to stutter a lot. Opening, closing or minimizing windows starts to stutter. I have this problem the worst with Google Chrome, when I for example go to YouTube and open a video I encounter this problem. Disabling Hardware acceleration seems to eliminate the problem. A another example is when opening glxgears in the terminal dragging of a window is stuttering and slow. I notice this problem on multiple Nvidia cards on different hardware. I'm currently have a GTX 750.

On Intel or AMD cards I don't have these kind of problems.
