You're welcome =) I felt that very same relief when I tried it out and realized GNOME 3.6 performance finally went back to GNOME 3.4 levels on the same machine.

Just out of curiosity: what is your graphics card?

Andre

that setting

CLUTTER_VBLANK=none

makes it a *whole* lot better. In fact, AFAICS the problem is gone -- even if
NVidia driver is still set to sync to vblank. Other performance problems which
were also very noticeable on GNOME 3.6 (eg. moving windows around) are also gone.

Not sure if this is a GNOME or a NVidia bug (or both), will dive deeper into it
later.

THANK YOU!!
