Strange... When the 3 * screen size is checked an error message is produced and DRI is given as disabled in the X log. > >> >Should this [3 * screen size] be in video memory or total AGP memory >> >would suffice? >> The 3 * screen size restrition refers always on the video memory. >And will it always be the same? 1280x1024/24bpp is ... a bit more than >my humble 8M:( Even yesterday Leif and I briefly discussed this on the IRC meeting and unfortunately ther seem to be some limitations in Mach64 itself regarding this, i.e., as far as we know it's not possible to put none of the front back and depth buffer on AGP. So unless we dismiss the back buffer I don't see how this restrition will go away. (I don't know how Windows copes with this neither - it's something I still have to check). > >> Yes.

So one can really feel the difference... Yes, there are some situations, but they don't depend on the available memory and/or screen resolution. So if is this what you were talking about then the difference in fps come solely from less texture trashing.
