Just as a datapoint to the Xorg maintainers reading this:

Since the patch has been applied to Ubuntu's Xorg, compositing has
slowed down for me to a degree that I'm now running without it.

For example, it takes well beyond one second to get the yakuake window
up with compositing on, while before the Ubuntu Xorg packages were
updated, it would be almost instantaneously. It's absolutely swift with
compositing off.

I'd much rather have the momentary garbage on the screen, that was only
a visual distraction but didn't actually render the system less usable.

Hardware is ATI x1300, symptoms happen with the last couple of fglrx
drivers and the free radeon driver in Intrepid.
