** Description changed:

  A fresh install of ubuntu 13.10 is completely unusable on my Acer Aspire
  One netbook. All fade effects are extremely slow, which makes the whole
  desktop slow to a crawl. Because fade effects are present in both the
  dash and the HUD, ubuntu is not usable. It takes over 2 full minutes
  with the cpu at 100% for compiz to open the dash, opening the HUD takes
  slightly shorter, around 30 seconds.
  
+ WORKAROUND:
+ Use unity-tweak-tool to disable blur alltogether via Search -> General -> Background blur -> Off
