You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: unity
On my Asus 1000HE netbook, adding a second monitor using the Monitors panel makes Unity run unusably slowly. I speculate this is because it seems to be running entirely in software. It works fine if I disable the internal panel and exclusively use the external monitor, but not with both displays active at the same time.
