Most of these problems are caused by graphics card drivers. KDE 4 stresses
parts of the drivers previously unused. All the major three providers are
working on the problems. As a workaround you sometimes have to turn off all
desktop effects, In other cases editing xorg.conf helps. It's worth reading
http://userbase.kde.org/GPU-Performance for some tips.
For a greater understanding of what's happening in the driver world, read this
article about Intel drivers:
