Bug Description
The alt-tab switcher is extremely slow. I literally hold the alt key, hit tab, and then wait a few seconds for my key press to be registered by the switcher. It makes it unusable.

To be clear, the switcher comes up quickly, it's the tabbing between applications that takes seconds to register. I'm a little suspect that the behavior is isolated to ATI cards but I'm not certain.
