I would say no, but I'm out of ideas -  other than scanning the xorg
log and the output of glxinfo for warnings or errors.  Turning on some
of the plugins - "rain" for instance - does push compiz and xorg up to
40% CPU each on my system.  Wobbly never seems to go over about 10%
for me.

Back when I was first playing around with beryl/compiz/nvidia, I added
these to my xorg.conf in the "Screen" section:
        Option      "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
        Option      "DisableGLXRootClipping" "True"
But I don't remember why :).  I also have the following section:
Section "Extensions"
        Option      "Composite"
EndSection

Not sure if any of that will prove useful to you though.  Maybe
someone else knows more...
