Bug Description

If using the NVidia drivers what's displayed inside of application windows at times/segments seams to jump back and forth between what was displayed and what should be currently displayed.* This happens with a frequently with a lot of different windows/parts of windows. Like this text box had jumpy text after the text I'm typing now. Sometimes scrolling can cause this jumpiness to start.

Using the mouse shortcut for expo seams to temporally fix this.

This doesn't happen with Nouveau drivers and Compiz, nor NVidia drivers with just KDE-plasma (No Compiz).

*(Might not be a fully accurate description/explanation, best I could come up with for now.)

NVidia 340.65 (tried other 340.xx a while back, etc... and it still happened with them too)
Compiz 0.9.12.0
Debian 8 Jessie(testing)
KDE 4.14.2
