Can you attach glxinfo? Sounds very much like you are using swrast or llvmpipe.

The framerate should be approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate. 51 frames in 5.1 seconds = 10.010 FPS which is rather good comparing to the behavior of glxgears without fullscreen and maximized (showing the window borders and panels) which is aroudn 5 FPS. This is the same for both Unity 2D, standard 3D Unity (in which also just moving windows around is painful) and KDE (in which everything is ever slower which makes KDE practically unusable). I've had the same behavior since I installed Ubuntu 11.10, and its the same now with the 12.04 alpha.

When I run glxgears on the Kubuntu machine, its not running in synchronized mode and the fullscreen framerate is reported around 50 FPS, though the movement is almost as choppy as in the Ubuntu machine (so I don't understand what is going on). In the Kubuntu machine, KDE can't do OpenGL desktop effects at all - I get errors when I try to enable that, though glxgears does work. A slightly older machine (running chipset 82801H - ICH8 family) works fine.
