Xorg server consumes most of CPU time even for simple tasks like firefox borwsing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Run firefox and open about 5 tabs. Actual Results: On my PC Xorg server consumes about 40% of CPUs time during windows movement. Expected Results: I expect CPU consumption not more than 1-2%. Are you sure this release is really stable? 1) I downgraded to "X Window System Version 7.1.1 Release Date: 12 May 2006 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 7.1.1 Build Operating System: UNKNOWN Current Operating System: Linux localhost 2.6.20-gentoo-r8 #1 SMP Sat May 19 11:39:14 EEST 2007 x86_64 Build Date: 19 May 2007 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version.

Is this still an issue with 1.3.0? Please reopen when you reply, and attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Created attachment 126927 [details] Xorg log for v1.3.0.0

Unfortunately issue still preset.
Have you tried switching to XAA instead of EXA Option "AccelMethod" "XAA"
Thanks! XAA method woks much better than EXA.
This isn't a gentoo fault, merely that EXA needs more work yet.
Closing now, as XAA works for you and as EXA is still in development.
