I found out that xshm is not realy playing at low frame rates, but in fact it's about cpu load, wich goes up to 100%, and it's a 2.0ghz celeron. This is for shure due to beta state of the driver.

I joined today the #unichrome channel on irc but it's a little bit too programing for me... I am not a programer, even if I can understand some code.
