I got similar problems using single monitor configuration, just after upgraded my ATI card driver to the latest AMD propietary driver (12.2). Compiz used 50-80% of my CPU. Before I used AMD propietary driver (12.1) without experiencing this problem. So I consider this as a regression. My

I have had this issue for 1-1.5 year despite of my and other bug reports. It was a pain to use Unity with compiz or compiz alone. Had to use 2d or nouveau drivers. Nouveau got new issues in 11.10 so it become even harder. Certainly some bug exists in the proprietary drives. NVIDIA doesn't care
