[Bug 37686] TearFree

[bugzilla-daemon at freedesktop.org]

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37686

--- Comment #123 from Chris Wilson <chris at chris-wilson.co.uk> ---
No. (Though there maybe some hardware which may require TearFree by default to
function correctly, in which case it will be enabled automatically.) The
problem is that it increases memory allocation considerably and reduces
performance, giving you the same penalty as using a compositor. If you then use
a compositor on top, you use even more memory to achieve the same effect. As
such it is optional.
