Comment 50 for bug 803943

I've completed the fix for bug 880707, but it's still awaiting review which could take several weeks still (this is a slow time of the release cycle for reviews). When it's been accepted then I'll put that fix in my PPA for immediate testing by everyone. It's a bit too dramatic a change to propose as an oneiric-update.

Bug 861061 is likely to represent much more of the CPU usage though. And I am aiming to start on a fix for that this week. Then it will be in my PPA within a couple of weeks and hopefully also in oneiric-updates.

These are incidental fixes which just happen to reduce compiz CPU usage. I haven't even trying profiling for the main CPU hog in compiz yet.
