I can confirm the observations made by Dawid Lorenz

I tried replicating the actions in the video he posted in his own bug report, and found the results to be the same.

- Opening the image viewer made desktop switching noticably slower.
- Launching Google Chrome brings about very noticable performance changes overall
- Upgrading my Gedit from 3.10 to 3.12 eliminated the issue with slow performance in the text editor

Definitely seems that at least part of issue bight be in drawing/updating of gnome 3.10 applications

However, I've noticed:

- Opening a gnome terminal window (NB: Version 3.12) also brings about the sluggish performance in desktop switching

So I'm not sure the issue can be solely attributed to the the 3.10 vs. 3.12 changes.
