Bug Description
I upgraded to Gutsy today. I ran OK for a few hours but now it seems that the Xgl process is consuming lots of CPU and the system feels really slow.
If I open 'top' I can often see close to 100% cpu for Xgl.
I have tried to reboot but that had no effect, the system felt slow just after logging in.
