I can confirm that commenting out lines 341-344 of the /usr/bin/compiz script has completely resolved my rendering issues. I haven't experienced any problems since making the change. Thanks to those that suggested it.

Just to clarify, these lines in /usr/bin/compiz enable the loose-binding option for all nvidia cards. Commenting out just causes compiz to run without the loose-binding option (which I never found worked very well in previous versions anyway). Here are the lines in their commented-out form:

# if check_nvidia; then
# if [ "x$INDIRECT" != "xyes" ]; then
# COMPIZ_OPTIONS="$COMPIZ_OPTIONS --loose-binding"
# fi
# fi
