Hi.
I am considering using KDE SC as my main desktop environment instead of Gnome 3. Mainly because KDE SC seems quite stable and I really like the look of it.
I do have some issues remaining before taking the jump.
Windows minimizing / maximizing seems a bit sluggish / slow. Its not super slow, but the feel of it is a lot worse than with compiz.
Scrolling in firefox is slow.
Resizing windows is slow.
Does anyone see the same kwin performance issues?
Do anyone know how to improve the performance?
Unfortunately I can not use the oss drivers, due to lack of prober powermanagement. But I am still interested to hear if those are better.
I did try to change the QT backend to OpenGL, but that resulted in a corrupted screen.
My system:
Archlinux - latest updates.
Fglrx 11.6 using my hd4650 card.
I hope to find a solution to this, so I can use KDE.
