If this is a compiz issue then you can use Unity-2D to see if performance increases. Unity-2D does not use compiz.

If you find that it is a compiz issue, then you are most probably affected by this bug-report.

This has been resolved and is awaiting testing by a larger group of users. If this is successful the fix will be released into the main repository and you will automatically receive this as part of the Update-Manager process. This will normally occur in a few-days/weeks after a fix is released into the proposed repository.

If you are feel you wish to contribute to the testing process, you can enable the "Proposed" repository in your software-sources. Refresh your software sources via Update-Manager and you will see new Unity packages available. You could install these suggested packages.
