Thanks for the info Michele. We haven't ran
  any benchmarks on the new drivers.

  Do you know if the issue affects opengl only or
  is it generic?

  Thanks,
    Dmitri

Maybe it could be interesting for the java2d team too. Read it as a kind-of warning. Looks like the new 169.21 whql NVidia drivers and above (new betas) have some problems in dealing with the PCIe bus, making it run at 1x instead of 16x. This problem does not affect the previous 163.75 whql driver which runs smoothly at 16x.

Is there someone here with the same performance issue ?
