It’s a known bug from upstream mutter. A fix is being worked on and there’s a PPA with the updated packages by the Ubuntu developer working on the fix. It resolved the problem on my end.

    If the animations are running slow then your hardware is likely the culprit. Make sure you have a GPU made in the last 10-15 years or so.

    I don’t deny that Xfce4 is going to be lighter weight but saying it is faster is a stretch.

      No, the animations aren’t running slower on my hardware than in any other hardware… the issue is that there are animations and those take time to complete.

        They shouldn’t take time as everyone has pointed out.
