@dejan, you should comment on bug #1222602 as this bug is a dup of that.
There is a workaround in comment #6 of that bug which works for me.

Title:
  Unity animations very slow with 3D capable graphics Intel 945

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  With up to date Saucy, Unity animations are very slow.  For example, hovering over launcher the app tooltip takes three seconds to appear fully and is drawn as a series of images each more opaque that the previous.  Normal operation within an app is ok as is window movement and switching between windows using the mouse.  To draw the shutdown dialog takes many seconds however.  
  I can't see anything unusual in .xsession-errors, syslog or Xorg.0.log
  The result is that the machine is virtually unusable.
