The problem was that it would lock up as soon as I typed in a letter, only when its opened after which it functions fine, but that delay could last up to five seconds and it wasn't confined to the search bar either, Gnome Shell seemed to freeze completely too.
At first I did blame a rouge plugin, but after uninstalling all of them and still had the same problem, I'd give it another release before I give it another try.
And if you think Twin is configurable, you should probably try it first, then try saying the same thing. It really isn't.

Half of you are hitting Google right now. Wondering whats "NukeX"!!!! Well don't bother its a $8,000 compositor that slaps the dogshit out of Adobe AfterEffects and then shits on its head.
Ohhh crap don't forget about DaVinci Resolve now your getting into the $100,000. Granted the program is free but what they don't tell you is about that $100,000 your going to drop on gear to properly use it.
And the free version is only for Windows and Mac, but you have to run it on linux to even use it lol. Its a paradox.
Spend some time on Mari's forums and you will see the all to common "Windows Performance Problems" post, and then you will see me, having to break the news to them. And then point them to Centos. And the Mari Linux packages.
Its sad but funny at the same time because you get all these windows users sporting there new Windows 7/8 computers wanting to get into VFX talking about all the cash they just spent and research done. And then some vet has to break the bad news and explane that yes you will find a few Windows machines but there not actually used.Last edited by zester; 15 May 2013, 05:15 AM.

You deviate from that and your nothing more than vapor that once was.

Still, very interesting to try out.
There's also the Viper Window Manager which does a similar thing, though sadly development has stopped for that project too.

I don't know about Wayland, but this is exactly why Canonical needed a new UI/display server for Ubuntu. Because the old one was slow enough on PC's, let alone on mobile devices. It needed a lean interface to work great even on low-end chips. And now this will probably faster even than Windows RT on ARM chips.
