Results for glbenchmark 2.7 at 320x240 (units of fps):

    N           Min           Max        Median           Avg        Stddev

I chose a tiny resolution here to try and focus on the path that we
think this will help in (clipping overhead reduction).  The stupid app
prints an integer fps, so it can be hard to get any signal out of small
changes at higher resolutions.
