Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Description of the problem:
Playing back a Team Fortress 2 video fullscreen is slow when compiz is enabled even though it is fine when metacity is used.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download http://cdn2.fileshack.com/secure/video/14334.flv?rs=250&e=1256744653&h=acf691798605c6ea375731bf12bf01c3.flv .
2. Run metacity --replace .
3. Run totem on the downloaded file. Press F to go fullscreen. Quit totem after 60 seconds of the video have played.
4. Run compiz --replace .
5. Run totem on the downloaded file. Press F to go fullscreen.

Expected results:
5. to be a little bit slower than 3. if the CPU/GPU is not at all idle otherwise no noticeable difference.

Actual results:
5. is dramatically slower than 3. even though top says the CPU is 70% idle and intel_gpu_top shows most tasks are at 90% at most.
