I have the X1400 also, but the laptop version.  I find a bit different 
experience than you report.  When I run beryl for a while, I encounter a 
complete desktop freeze. After the second event, I stopped using it and 
went back to compiz.  I haven't had any freeze on compiz.

Have you had any lockups in beryl on your X1400?
