I get similar problems with my Toshiba Tecra S1 with a Mobility 9000
R250 i.e. desktop is unbearably slow both with and without compiz going.
Feisty was fine with compiz running.

Xorg.0.log reports that DRI is enabled, however glxinfo says that
indirect rendering is being used and nothing shows when I set the debug
variables. I also get kernel messages about mtrrs not being found:

[ 2743.024000] mtrr: no MTRR for a8000000,2000000 found
[ 2745.508000] agpgart: Found an AGP 2.0 compliant device at 0000:00:00.0.

[ 2746.812000] [drm] Loading R200 Microcode
[ 2746.812000] [drm] writeback test succeeded in 2 usecs

Is it possible that drm is trying to use the wrong mtrr?
a8000000,2000000 suggests it's looking for a 32MB mtrr at a8000000,
however:

$ cat /proc/mtrr 
reg00: base=0x00000000 (   0MB), size= 512MB: write-back, count=1
reg01: base=0xb0000000 (2816MB), size=  64MB: write-combining, count=1
reg02: base=0xa8000000 (2688MB), size= 128MB: write-combining, count=2

I'd try and change the AGP aperture like it says in the wiki, but the
laptop bios doesn't have this option.
