I just updated my GPU drivers using the xorg-edgers PPA on Ubuntu 14.04 (https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa) and now it's a lot better. Dragging the map, there's a small delay before the map moves, but when it does it's smooth. I remembered that I was having problems with Google Maps, as well as other Web GL stuff, so I figure there was a bug in my drivers.
