Xorg.0.log at 6db906ea8188cd7f731e5ef7391115ee8f5c17c8,

With UXA on my Lenovo Thinkpad T530 Ivy Bridge machine, playing video with mpv
(<a href="https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv">https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv</a>) worked fine keeping up with my 60hz LVDS or
HDMI TV using the command

    mpv file.mkv --no-config --fs --vo=opengl:scale=spline36
--video-sync=display-vdrop --osd-msg1='${estimated-display-fps}' 

This is the bare minimum opengl output driver with a mid-quality spline36 luma
scaler implemented as an opengl shader. The added "--video-sync=display-vdrop
--osd-msg1='${estimated-display-fps}' " activates display sync and displays the
effective framerate on the screen.

At d909c460743a0cabc5c0ed30e063e99af7b26b17, it seems that vsyncs start to
happen about twice as fast ~120fps on the 60hz displays. Then, three commits
later at 6db906ea8188cd7f731e5ef7391115ee8f5c17c8, it appears that I am no
longer able to render frames fast enough for the refresh rate so that it
bounces around 50 +/- 5 fps on either display. The problem goes away if I
remove the scale=spline36 scaler so that it falls back to cheaper bilinear,
which is why I say this is a performance regression.  Similarly, the hardly
taxing GLXgears appears to render ~60fps just fine.

The problem also does not appear to exist for SNA, but I am unable to use that
mode due to other problems (#91066).</pre>
