| furkan | tjaalton: did you see this? https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-announce/2016-March/002681.html | 02:32 |
|---|---|---|
| furkan | Looks like those glamor fixes have been merged into 1.18.2 | 02:33 |
| furkan | also "glamor is updated to use OpenGL core profiles if available, which should improve memory usage and performance on modern hardware" | 02:33 |
| mamarley | Will 1.18.2 go in Xenial? | 02:41 |
| tjaalton | furkan: knew that it was going to be released yes | 06:13 |
| tjaalton | I'll upload it to staging | 06:51 |
| tjaalton | and sid of course | 06:56 |

| furkan | tjaalton: i just installed it | 19:45 |
| furkan | very nice CPU usage improvement, with my "ritual" test that i do after every xorg update | 19:46 |
| furkan | which is to open up top in a terminal | 19:46 |
| furkan | and then open up a nautilus window and drag it around the screen like a madman | 19:46 |
| furkan | 1.18.1, i was getting about 33%, 23%, and 15% between Xorg, compiz, and nautilus | 19:47 |
| furkan | after installing 1.18.2 and rebooting, now it's down to around 25/15/5 | 19:48 |
| furkan | still pretty bad compared to windows, but good progress | 19:49 |
| furkan | i imagine it'll continue to get better if eric wants to get X to run smoothly on the rpi, with that kind of hardware he'll need all the CPU optimizations he can get | 19:50 |
| furkan | tjaalton: interesting bug though, i have a stray cursor just sitting there on my secondary display (which is rotated) | 19:53 |
| tjaalton | furkan: file it, i'm not here atm | 19:56 |
| furkan | will do after some more experimentation | 20:02 |
| furkan | well i restarted lightdm and now it's gone, so i guess it might not be easy to reproduce | 20:04 |
| furkan | also noticed another bug where some grey text in firefox is rendered in red... back to normal after downgrading to 1.18.1 | 20:15 |
| furkan | would help to be able to do a bisect, if that's possible | 20:15 |
