In my case ( 8800GTS (640) ) it is definitely the old memory limit problem returned to kill. But it happens with indirect rendering set (though does this have an effect in current Compiz?) and absolutely every compiz option turned off. Disabling/enabling stuff (whatever) doesn't help.

To reproduce, open numerous windows. Eventually the screen flickers when a window is opened or switched to. After that all the fun happens. You can even find the boundary to the memory limit by resizing windows a tiny bit. Small perturbations on the size either create or remove the problem if the right amount of stuff is open.
