** Description changed:

  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.
