I've done some tests of the CUT and I've determined that it does provide a very substantial benefit, and does so for common cases. What I've tested with so far are:
a) firefox (probably all double buffered applications) b) metacity with compositing In both cases it removes upwards 90% of the changes, which is a massive saving. And the cases above aren't rare and exotic. (I also seem to recall that Qt4 does double buffering by default) So I say we need to turn it back on by default. If it has performance issues, then we should look at optimising it, not killing it completely.
