glxgears under classic is definitely not pinning the hardware -- the
'intel_idle' tool shows that it's only using about 70% of the GPU. GEM
is pinning the hardware. Usually this means there's some synchronization
between the CPU and GPU causing each to wait part of the time while the
other executes. I haven't really looked at the non-gem case though; the
numbers seem similar enough to what I've seen in the past.

This is a Panasonic CF-R4.
