If you are able to run Compiz at all you are doing better than most people who have similar specs.
Usually with onboard intel graphics you are stuck using the Intel driver installed by default.
If you've got any 3D effects to work you may not be able to do any better than what you presently have.
I know this isn't what you want to hear, Sorry. :(
