Compositing in metacity is not enabled.

P.S. Excessive cpu usage happens whenever metacity runs, regardless
whether compiz also runs or not. Also, running metacity --replace
crashes my X session.

P.S.S. I checked the compiz wrapper script, which creates the command
line to call compiz.real. Apparently, when called with no arguments and
metacity running it produces a command which already contains the
--replace argument. When I run compiz --replace, it simply add the
additional argument to the end of the command line - repeating the
argument --replace twice. The argument doesn't do its job either way.
