Using EXA is nowhere near a proper fix. To see what I mean, open FireFox
and attempt to scroll a decent sized page; the CPU will spike to 100%
usage and FireFox will drop to a crawl.

A few of us from ArchLinux are having this same issue, with the card
"ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY". It is *not* related to
Compiz in anyway, my notebook runs a small/lightweight wm called
awesome, and has never seen compiz.

For us, downgrading to xf86-video-ati-6.12.4-3 and using XAA is the only
"proper" fix. See our thread about it here:
