This doesn't really matter. Using regular memory will always be faster
for software rendering even with a chip with dedicated memory and
controller.
video chip memory has (or can has) one bad peculiarity : the read from
speed is very slow while write to speed may be faster than that of
regular memory. This is one of the problems with partially software,
partially hardware rendering.
