Can you explain what you mean by using the HUD to find an app?  The HUD (usually brought up by hitting Alt) does not find apps, it is used to run menu selections.
Perhaps you mean the Dash (usually run by hitting the Windows (Super) key.  But then the comment about Gimp does not make sense.

Title:
  Unity HUD very slow drawing icons - unusable

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  If using HUD to find an app, the icons take a long time to draw,
  rendering it pretty unusable. Using the HUD in a programme like GIMP
  for instance is fine, therefore I suspect a graphics issue.
