Effectively, this makes it feel like compiz tries to load some kind of fallback mode by default, to handle issues like hotplugging displays, and toggling the copy to texture plugin when running on nvidia _crashes_ this fallback mode -- but the desktop performs much, much better without it.

The Unity desktop is much, much smoother after _toggling off_ "copy to texture" in compizconfig during a session. There don't seem to be any performance gains from starting up with it turned off; it has to be toggled mid-session.
