Yesterday I played KDiamond on a slower machine (1.8 GHz); at full 1280x800 
resolution it was near to unplayable. The symptoms stay the same, just the 
times increase. The animations were smooth on half the resolution (~800x600).

Some things that come to my mind: Which graphics card and driver are you 
using? Do you have 3D acceleration activated? If yes, is KWin compositing? 
For me, I had an Intel GMA X3100 (one of the best of their on-board GPUs) 
with 3D and compositing on. I'll try later what is the result for compositing 
turned off.
