Who is the performance killer ?

August 5, 2006 6:13:54 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
Hi,
I have the following installed:
WindowBlinds with the "Lightblue II" Skin, DesktopX with 5 Widgets and one Object, 2 virtual desktops and ObjectDock.
Now I notice a significant drop in graphic performance e.g. just moving a window around on the desktop.
Is there any "main" performance killer ?

I have a Laptop with a FireGL5200 (Ati X1600 mobile) which should really do the job
Any hints are apreciated

If you have any systats running in object dock (or any other docklets), that may be it...I use alot of docklets, and have noticed that they do hit your performance, as do tabbed docks. Also DesktopX system meters tend to hurt my performance as well...just start removing 1 docklet or meter at a time, and see what happens.

Docklets can definitely be a problem. I have several tabbed docks, and haven't noticed any slow down caused by them.
