Well, actually, the i810 has some minimal 3d support, and thanks to
some intel code drops, it even works in X.

But it doesn't have render acceleration, which is what composite cares about.

Only NVidia's binary drivers have hardware render acceleration, as I
recall (though ATi's binaries may as well). You simply won't see good
performance with anything else, for now.
