To add:
- Cinnamon was forked from gnome-shell, so any slowness you see in
  gnome-shell should be shared with Cinnamon, else the bugfix should be
  upstreamed. People have been saying that Cinnamon doesn't seem to
  include bugfixes made in gnome-shell though. Not verified/checked if
  that is true.
- GNOME 3.8 will have a new mode with some kind of start menu and a few
  other things (being vague because it is in development, not released
  yet, plus I have not tried it yet)
