Some animation transitions are really slow

I'm havin trouble with some animation transitions like in calendar when turning pages in fullscreen and windowed modes, this one is terribly slow. When swapping between fullscreen apps sometimes lags as well as in mission control and I'm not even running too many apps, just iTunes, Safari and Mail. Notes is lagging too when in fullscreen.

I have a Mid 2010, 27" iMac with Core i5 2.8 GHz, 16 GB RAM, Radeon HD 5750 1024 MB. I don't think this is a "slow" configuration, this shouldn't be happening.

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion

I know this is an old post but wanted to add my information as I have had this problem as well. For the past two days I noticed switching between my 5 desktops on my 13" mbpro retina with Intel HD Graphics 4000 graphics was VERY LAGGY/CHOPPY/SLOW. Everything I tried was unsuccesful, pram, permissions, resolution changes. I found this post discussing autocad and interestingly enough I had just installed autocad LT demo a few days ago. I launched it again, quit it, and now the multiple desktop switching is better, I wouldn't say 100% "normal" but A LOT better not at laggy. I"m very curious why autodesk software that costs an arm and a leg makes a computer that costs an arm and a leg have video problems when it isn't even running?
