I had to watch two videos at once with mplayer (to visually compare them). Doing that revealed that fglrx is *slower* than molasses when having two opengl apps run at the same time with VSync enabled in a compositing environment (KDE 4).
So I tried running several instances of glxgears at once. Even with just two, the lag becomes intolerable. Add a third, and you feel like running Windows Vista on a 486.
Disabling VSync makes everything super-fluid again.
Is this normal and will we have to live with it? It sucks.
