From your comment I somehow doubt that you have used gnome-shell for
more than 10 seconds. It doesn't use compositing for more than zooming
the overview in and out. Everything else is pretty static, it's not like
compiz with all those crazy effects. Apple and Microsoft both use some
effects in Windows 7/MacOS X and nobody complained.
