Hmmm, this is not my experience on a 1.8Ghz dual-core athlon. With software rendering, I get noticeable visual stutter when switching virtual desktops. Dense text, webpages, and lots of windows on a desktop make it worse. Video tears pervasively. Flash video, not so hot to being with, is totally unusable. Should I expect better? Perhaps I need to tweak some other settings or compile differently? I just assumed that it was expected that software would be not so great. > 3. if you use gl accel... then it should be rather smooth - but now it's a > driver problem. we can't fix your drivers. i doubt it's composite's fault - > its > most likely driver/gl.

Sure - drivers and their varying quality is a problem. Frustratingly, the GPU in my PC (RS880) is one of the few that the wiki lists as tested and working. I do recognize that its working once with certain versions of the Xorg stack means relatively little.
