I've never had any Vista performance problems. With any recent Windows you really have to do some tuning, my Vista install has all the fancy stuff turned off (Aero, indexing, etc). It looks like Win 95 (without the memory leaks), but runs a lot better than before I turned all the eyecandy off.
On my Ubuntu install on the other hand, I have all the eyecandy on (3D cube desktop) and it runs better than any Windows version I have used...
PD
