You're probably using closed-source nvidia or ati drivers?
The ATI ones suck bigtime when it comes to 2d performance, for me it goes to
50s on the circles test (others go fine).
Or perhaps, if you're using intel drivers or OSS versions ("readon", not sure
about nvidia ones) try adding "Option" "AccelMethod" "EXA" to your device
section in xorg.conf (WARNING: requires late X/drm, OR update your libdrm and
drm kernel module from sources).
Works like a charm and shows pretty much that:
1. The closed source drivers have some bug (the circles speed here isn't normal)
2. There's 2D accel available but mostly unused
3. Gtk2 heavily relies on acceleration and good drivers regardless of LCL
