What window/compositing manager do you use? Does it reproduce on others? Does it reproduce without a compositing manager?

XFCE also has a compositing manager by default I believe. Can you try disabling it?

Ah ok, that's unfortunate. I can't really explain why chrome is making other programs laggy for you, it isn't something that seems to be widespread on other machines. It could be a driver problem, or something else on your system. You could try disabling hardware acceleration in chrome and see if that's better for you. I can't reproduce this on my NVIDIA linux machine (and most chrome devs are using similar). For me I don't use a compositing manager, but it sounds like that's not related. I'm not sure what else to ask for to debug, or try from our end. +thomasanderson in case he has any thoughts that we could try.

Disabling acceleration cauaes tearing. I have to choose between system lag and website tearing. And thats why i am using Firefox now. I am really upset. Firefox has no tearing and doesnt cause system lag. So its poasible.... |
