It's not normal, though there have been changes that might cause issues.
Could you try:
* Test with a fullscreen area if it is only the 3D-view or any other
view that is slow.
* Under Outliner > User Preferences > System & OpenGL > Window Draw
Method, enable Overlap and Full and test if they are slow as well.

Alo, please mention your graphics card, how much memory it has, and your
screen resolution.

Thanks,
Brecht.
