Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

Hi!
I run KDE 4.4.1 on karmic from the kubuntu repositories on a Laptop with a 
Radeon Mobility 9000. Compositing works quite well with the radeon driver. But 
Xorg and plasma seem to consume lots of memory (system's total phys. memory: 
768MB), the system is slow and my system swaps quite often. In KDE 4.3 I didn't 
notice that behavior. Note that I already disabled nepomuk.
Thus, I tried to disable compositing to get a performance boost. This produces 
a strange effect. Depending on where the systemsettings window is located when 
disabling compositing, some part of the desktop seems to be corrupt. As well as 
the control bar as kwin didn't change from compositing to non-compositing in 
some area. In the attachment you'll find some screenshots illustrating the 
behavior.
