It's a series of chipsets involved
GMA500 ('Poulsbo')
GMA600 ('Oaktrail')
GMA3600 ('Cedartrail')
GMA3650 ('Cedartrail')
E6xx ('Tunnel Creek')
The unaccelerated driver is quite happy with 2D desktops but LLVMpipe and
the paths used by the Gnome bling and compositing seem to hit it a lot
harder.
That probably points to it being at least partly solvable by de-blinging
the Gnome3 desktop or optimising/changing how it renders. E for example
has multiple rendering back ends.
