Here are some more pieces of information.

* indeed there is no corruption, and it is quite stable (at least as stable as in the single screen config)

* if the "rotate" option is in xorg.conf, or if I do it manually after X is launched, with xrandr, the result is the same.

* if I disable DRI in xorg.conf by adding
Option "DRI" "false"
then X won't start (black screen).
However if I start without DRI AND without rotate, then I can rotate with xrandr, but the result is the same as before (slow).

* the option
Option "NoAccel" "true"
has the same effect and disabling DRI above.

* the option "AccelMethod" "EXA" or "XXA" has no visible influence

* I have also tried to disable the laptop screen by xrandr --output=LVDS --off, but the result is still the same.

I'm really out of clue here, sorry. I hope someone can make sense out of it.
