[Bug 484759] Re: KWin compositing disabled on login, very slow when enabled manually (with fglrx driver)

[gingerninja]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace
  
  This is a regression, as KWin compositing/effects worked well under
  Jaunty.
  
  There are some bug reports already mentioning how KWin effects are
  always disabled on login:

  https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202274
  
  I am also experiencing this, but when effects are manually enabled, the
  performance is atrocious - there is a noticeable delay
  moving/resizing/minimising windows etc, and the framerate drops very low
- (under 15fps according to the 'show fps' effect plugin).
+ (under 15fps according to the 'show fps' effect plugin). See

+ I don't believe this is a duplicate of the "effects disabled on login"
+ bugs but may be related.
  
  With the same xorg.conf, Compiz runs like a beast and looks great, so
  there is something KWin-specific going on here.
