3) What you expected to happen
Animations should be smooth.
4) What happened instead
When I maximize the dash and right-click on an item with blur enabled the animation is almost
not visible, because it isn't really smooth.
If I disable blur everything is smooth. FYI scrolling is smooth with blur enabled.
To my mind Unity seems to do some expansive operations, because my system should
really be capable of running unity smooth, which is true for most parts of the shell.
If you need more information, please let me know.

Not sure why but this animation is quite unexpectedly smooth (enough) even on my netbook.
