May I add my favorite configuration ?

GNU/Linux (Debian 8.0 / Jessie)
w/ KDE and enabled or disabled GL composite WM: All Great!

As Julien mentioned, this is not a JOGL issue at all.
Bad performance here is due to poor composite WM implementation
and/or a not so fast GPU. The latter should no more be an issue today though.
