[Bug 841518] [NEW] Dash very slow with blur in Oneiric beta1

[manny]

Public bug reported:

in natty all the way to oneiric alpha3 dash speed was good, but now with
the new blur introduced just before the beta, it is slow and hardly
browse-able in my computer. It even locks up sometimes...

ATI radeon x1250 (open drivers)

probably due to the open drivers not totally supporting the blur...

on another computer i have with intel card, dash is ok.

while it looks better with the eye candy, speed is priority over looks.
Specially on something that is used frequently like the dash.
