I have a radeon mobility 9700 64MB ram r300

I don't have compiz enabled.
Some 2D apps are a bit slow. I will give you examples:

- a maximized terminal, with "man bash" open, when scrolling down fast (lots of
cpu usage and huggy scrolling)
- other apps in the terminal, especially if maximized, when scrolling
- firefox, when viewing flash (flashplugin-nonfree) big animations (lots of cpu
usage, very slow animations, in some case)
     example:
http://notebookitalia.it/ricognizione-notebook-santa-rosa-centrino-duo-centrino-pro.html
click on the CPUs image to start the animation
- evolution, when scrolling (up and) down fast between the email, the cpu goes
to 100%, and the scrolling is slowed down a bit
- evince, when scrolling a pdf everything gets blocked until the image is
drawn. scrolling is terribly slow

my distribution: ubuntu gutsy
my packages:
compiz 0.5.2-0ubuntu3
xserver-xorg-video-ati 6.6.193-1ubuntu1
xserver-xorg 7.2-5ubuntu6
xserver-xorg-core 1.3.0.0.dfsg-6ubuntu3
mesa 7.0.1-1ubuntu1
libdrm2 2.3.0-4ubuntu1

My xorg.conf is clean
