Sorry for the multiple posts but I just did another test where I only used

 Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"

because it was recommended in my report over at Launchpad.

The result was a much more fluent tuxracer that was actually playable.
The downside however, is a much slower 2D rendering. For example when moving a
window over an area of the desktop with icons, the background flickers.
Also moving a window from one viewport to another on Compiz will result in a
pretty rough transition.

It would be great if we could have the best of both worlds.
Adding both options unfortunately doesn't do the trick.
