Actually, I find compiz quite clunky (Radeon 9250 on 1GHz G4 machine).
Beryl seems to behave itself much more, but because of the lack of Debian
packages and wanting to keep up-to-date with unstable, I use metacity
instead.
If the iBook has a Radeon M10, that's an r300 series GPU. I found compiz and
beryl to be particularly slow on the opensource r300_dri driver, and that's
on an Athlon 64 4000+ with a Radeon X850XT.
