*This* bug is about freezes on i965 with EXA.

Extreme Compiz slowness ought to be a different bug, though I cannot
give you a link right now.

BTW have you tried disabling vsync in compiz and in driconf? That
helped a lot for me (using EXA; I had no extreme slowness in UXA by
which I suspect vsync is broken with UXA).
