Sounds like a kernel problem.  Suspend/resume is handled in the kernel,
and restarting X does not fix the problem.  Moving to kernel.

Does this problem still occur on Ubuntu 12.04.1 "Precise Pangolin"?
What about on Ubuntu 12.10 "Qantal Quetzal" beta 2?

Title:
  Radeon 2600XT poor performance after suspend-to-ram

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xorg

  Up-to-date 10.04. Fresh Install.

  ATI Radeon 2600XT. Open-source driver. Kernel modesetting enabled
  (assumed from the 1440x900 plymouth resolution)

  This is an r600 card, so lucid is the first release with open-source
  3D. While the performance isn't great at the best of times, it is
  quite usable even under Extra Effects.

  However, occasionally after suspend-to-ram/resume, performance becomes
  terrible (although still barely usable - typing this bug in the bad
  state). Moving windows causes tearing, even typing occasionally locks
  up for a few seconds. Opening menus is painful.

  Potentially useful things I have noticed:
   - Enabling/Disabling "Special Effects" has no effect on the problem.
   - GLXGears prints a normal fps value when in the bad state, and it's 
rendering is fine as well.
   - Each 'action' only hiccups once: start typing and it will lock for a few 
seconds, catch up, and be fine. However, if your typing cursor leaves that text 
field and reenters it, the hiccup will happen again.
   - During each hiccup, X uses 80+ percent of CPU.
   - I've found no correlation between the occurrence of this problem and:
   - - applications open during the suspend
   - - time between suspend and resume
   - - peripheral devices plugged in during suspend/resume
   - I have never noticed this issue on a fresh boot.
   - Once this issue occurs, restarting X (Alt-SysRq-K) does not fix it. X 
restarts fine, but the poor performance remains.
