--- Comment #29 from Kevin Brace <kevinbrace at gmx.com> ---
P Touchman, thus far, I have not touched any of the rendering related code
other than remove compilation warnings (mainly of "unused variables" type
warnings).
In general, the rendering performance of OpenChrome DDX has been going downward
since X Server 1.11 (Lubuntu 12.04) even with the same exact OpenChrome DDX
code.
I know this because I do test the same code by compiling against X Server 1.11
and 1.19, and 1.19 is clearly slower.
It is possible this is Linux kernel related since I didn't use identical
kernel.
I do not plan to work on rendering related code until OpenChrome DRM is
mainlined (accepted) into the Linux kernel tree.
