Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

On Karmic, clean installation:

Intel driver hinders the performance of Java Swing applications using
the GTK look and feel, running on a GNOME environment that is using
themes like  "Ambiance" (Karmic default), Human, Clearlooks, Dust and
others.

The problem is worse on applications using tabbed panes, such as
Squirrel SQL Client. Changing between tabs take nearly a second to
complete

I'm sure it is a problem of the graphics driver. When using the VESA one
on xorg.conf, the same applications run smoothly using the same
VM/configuration. They also do in machines with other graphic cards.

When I disable double buffering in Swing applications, they don't even
get painted properly.

Many thanks for your attention, and best wishes.
