I don't need the tooltip because changing the brightness gives you visual feedback on its own. More importantly, the tooltip really slows down my computer - if video is playing the tooltip causes it to stutter, unlike the volume change tooltip, which doesn't slow down the computer.

Are you sure the "tooltip" causes the problem? Can you try killing notify-osd and then changing brightness? If it still stutters then you have another problem.– RolandiXorNov 6, 2011 at 21:05

I killed notify-osd, but it was re-spawned as soon as I pressed the brightness keys.– sashoalmNov 22, 2011 at 9:03

Presently there is a bug filed against this on Launchpad #461058 to disable on screen notifications.
You can customize the appearance of notify-osd by installing a ppa described here.
Mark Shuttleworth has previously suggested a patch for this would be welcome.
Currently there is no way of achieving what you want.
