I think it's not a mesa problem, it's a problem of the game which uses opengl
in the way which is clearly described in the gl spec as the way to get reduced
performance. This patch is a workaround for the game problem and it was written
just to check that I located the problem correctly. All other (properly
optimized) apps won't benefit from this patch, probably they'll become a bit
slower due to additional overhead with this workaround. That's why I'm not sure
that I want to submit such patches to mesa.

The best solution is to fix the game itself, so I think it makes sense to ask
the game developers about it (or to open the sources).
