I personally don't experience this except for flash inside steam (the sound
is flawless but the video is just a bit off).  Everything else seems to work
flawlessly/barely uses any CPU and isn't slow to me.  Specs:  nvidia 260m
gtx, 285 beta nvidia drivers, core duo intel 2.2ghz, Ubuntu 11.04, Gnome
2.0, no compiz enabled (if compiz is enabled you could try disabling it).
