First thing I would try is a hard reset. Hold down the power button and the home button at the same time until is shuts down. Then wait 30 seconds and restart it by turning it on. That usually cleans up quirks like on my iPad 2. It is not likely you have worn out the screen.

Tried that and it only works for a little while - about 1/2 hour

Don't have a Mac that's up to the task.
I thought of resetting the iPad from within system preferences, but that seems extreme if it won't do any good. Sigh.
If you've installed iOS 5, then you can do an iCloud backup, erase, and restore from that without having to connect to a computer.

Something simple to try might be quitting all the recent apps that are open in the background.
Double tap your home button, then hold your finger on one of the apps that pop up, at the bottom of your screen, until the red sign shows up on all of those apps. Then just tap that red minus sign on all of the apps you have open in the background, to actually quit them.

Thanks, I tried that too, but it didn't help. The problem mostly happens when I'm using Procreate, so I'm wondering if Procreate is guilty. I'll email them and see if they can shed any light on this.
People have been talking about the original iPad as being sluggish with iOS 5. Adding this possibility with your iPad + the sluggishness with the app you primarily use, it is possible that this app could require more hardware to run better. Perhaps the app may not have used as much resources then and it ran fine before, but the app could have been overhauled overtime to take advantage of the iPad 2, and now the new iPad.
This is all speculation in an attempt to help out, but I could be wrong nonetheless. In the end, something is wrong with either the app or the iPad. I say it's a mix of both.

You're probably pretty right. I backed up to iCloud, reset and the restored and now it seems to be working fine. iOS 5 has been working fine since its release until I started using Procreate several hours a day. Nothing else slowed down, just the pinching and zooming.
As I understand the workings of a capacitive screen, many calculations take place before you see a result. Many calculations must involve a file somewhere and it seems to me that file has become corrupted over time - maybe you're only allowed "n" number of pinches before it runs out of room?
