Seems like performance here has degraded a bit in the past few days as well. There's been so many updates it's hard to say what the culprit may be ;) (perhaps the kernel bumps)..

I don't have the i965, but it sounds related:
Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03)
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

I haven't done any "official" benchmarking, but window redrawing does seem to lack the performance it did a few days ago, and I've noticed a bit more flickering with various other things (noticeably the 'busy' mouse cursor, drawing windows, etc).
