Sure, I did it, will upload now. It does happen on modesetting driver
regardless of DRI version, strange. It's most visible on Chrome/ium scrolling,
but I can also notice it in standard GNOME-shell animations (for example, after
logging in startup animation is not smooth as it should be/as it is on radeon
DRI2), hope this information helps a bit. I'm very positive i can notice same
behaviour in games also (I'm not a gamer, so just a few I play).
