[SOLVED] KDE 4.4.2 and massive KWin performance loss.

Hi there,

After upgrading KDE to 4.4.2 I experienced massive KWin performance loss. Now it's all choppy and laggy, just like in KDE 4.1 or something.

Does anyone else experience this issue?

Cheers,

I figured it out by accident

Disabling window's glow/shadow made everything fast and snappy again.
