In testing, we found an oddball issue that with enabling GL for<br>
libcairo, when running under NVIDIA's proprietary driver applications<br>
see significantly increased memory utilization.<br>

<br>
For ubuntu we're working around this by having gl and non-gl binary<br>
packages in libcairo, so wayland can use the former and everything else<br>
the latter. We will be seeking a more proper fix longer term.<br>
<br>
I don't think this affects wayland directly, so just take as an FYI.<br>

They are ignoring the newer technoloie systems, and the aren't planning to support their own technologies on linux. on top of this the nouveau driver has been shown to out preform the nvidia driver on low end cards</div>
