We have several machines with Radeon 9800 Pro cards in them.  There have
been some issues with XFree86 4.3 though I can not remember what exactly
they were (though "slowdown" sounds familiar).

One of my co-workers downloaded, built and tested an XFree86 4.4
development snapshot recently.  He said the issues found under 4.3 were
all gone.

HTH.  Good luck.
