Bug Description
Binary package hint: indicator-applet
Expected behavior:
Go to indicators, click on a random one, quickly move mouse over the indicators. The indicators should nicely and rapidly be drawn.
Actual behavior:
It takes a noticeable fraction of a section to draw the indicators. There is a significant delay. When moving quickly, it takes a noticeable interval to draw them.
Steps to reproduce:
Grab a netbook (ASUS 1015PE here) or old laptop and follow the steps above.
This does not happen on my more powerful laptop.
Ways to improve:
Somehow increase responsiveness of indicators. This is essential, because as of now using the indicators is not a streamlined experience.
