[Mesa-dev] glxgears is faster but 3D render is so slow

[Brian Paul]

What does 'glxinfo' say with this configuration?  I'm guessing you're 
using the softpipe driver which is meant for correctness, not speed. 
For speed, you want the llvmpipe driver.  Install LLVM on your system 
first then reconfigure/rebuild Mesa.
