Alright, xserver-xorg-driver-intel for GMA 950: 2.12 3D performance is crippled unless you monitor your GPU with intel_gpu_top, this would affect compiz/gears/unity anything 3D, this is the driver in maverick 2.13 this driver doesn't work currently on GMA 950, I filed a bug upstream 2.11: 3D seems to work fine, i copied the file out of a 2.11 .deb from x-swat for lucid, gears runs with no intel_gpu_top assistance needed
