I got RecordMyDesktop to work, so here's a short video showing the
problem.  I forgot to include moving or resizing a window in this clip,
but by seeing the how slow the menus are, you can probably imagine how
long it takes to move windows around.

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-radeon
  
  Using a default installation of Lucid Beta 2 (installed onto a USB
  stick), the system is borderline unusable because of extremely slow
  visual response.  This was the case with a daily build that I tested
  several days ago, as well as both a default and an up-to-date
  installation of Beta 2.  These issues only happen with Compiz enabled.
  
  Clicking on 'Applications' quickly pops up the menu (though not with the
  smooth fade I've come to expect from Compiz).  When I move my mouse from
  'Applications' to 'Places,' though, it takes nearly 3 seconds to hide
  the 'Applications' menu and draw the 'Places' menu.  Similarly,
  attempting to resize or move a window does nothing for the first couple
  seconds, and when the window does finally move, the redrawing is
  choppier than an uncomposited Metacity.
  
  This is a major regression compared to the Karmic and Jaunty, which both
  ran Compiz flawlessly out of the box with the default Radeon driver.
  Disabling Compiz makes the system usable.
