I have the same issue after adding the PPA. UI has frozen twice today.
Description of the last time: UI froze and didn't take any input. I could move 
the cursor, but after moving the mouse I had to wait a few seconds before the 
new position of the cursor appeared (one time I could move it freely though). 
The cursor didn't change its appearance after hovering text fields. Reaction to 
pressing numlock (keyboard LED) was either very delayed or didn't happen at 
all(?).
Switching to tty1 and back to tty7 fixed it.

I'm not sure if I see higher compiz memory usage than usual. It's about 390 MiB 
right now (uptime only 1 day), not sure if it was lower before, Unity's memory 
usage has always been excessive for me (mainly Xorg + compiz).
However the freezes weren't caused by low memory situations, as I had a few GBs 
free.

Title:
  [334] Parts of the UI randomly flicker when moving the mouse

Status in Compiz:
  Triaged
Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Nvidia 334.21 makes the UI jearky, googled and found this on Nvidia
  forums:

  "This looks like a problem caused by the system compositor not
  properly waiting for X rendering to finish before performing OpenGL
  rendering in response. The GL_EXT_x11_sync_object extension was
  designed to solve this problem, but it looks like cogl (the back-end
  library used by GNOME's compositor) doesn't use it yet. "
