I am experiencing this as well with KDE 4.2 RC1 (Ubuntu Intrepid packages),
kmail 1.11.0 -- especially trying to move around with arrow keys -- the
composer cannot keep up if I hold an arrow key down for any length of time, so
when I let go it always overshoots.  Editing in general is painful. This only
happens in kmail, not in any other KDE editors e.g. Kate.  

For the most part it is fixed by turning off compositing in kwin, but some
things remain slow e.g. PageDown button -- it looks as if page down is being
simulated by arrow key presses, so every PageDown seems to take at least half a
second, with a lot going on visually on the screen.

My graphics card is an "ATI Technologies Inc Mobility Radeon HD 3650", using
the proprietary driver in Ubuntu (Intrepid), on a brand new powerful laptop
(Dell Studio 17).
