I have found that unredirecting fullscreen windows does help in many of cases, and I've used it before with games and "old" compiz classic (the one in Lucid). But I have also found the option rather unreliable in practice. I've resolved most issues by using a separate Openbox session dedicated to fullscreen gaming. Not a very desirable solution, but it works wonders for the performance .. (Why Openbox instead of Unity2D ? Because even Unity2D with disabled compositing in metacity causes performance issues with some games for me - Limbo in fullscreen from Humble Bundle V comes to mind.). Nvidia-blob & Ubuntu 12.04.
