Thanks Luke, I followed the link, there's little on that site that I'm not doing now, in fact only one option in the xorg.conf file is what differs.
I reran glxgears no improvement (in fact the rates dropped to 5 fps though this was fixed by a restart). Strangely enough... I've realized that if the glxgears window becomes invisible (ie is covered by another window) I get rates of 10000+ fps. I wonder if perhaps another extension is interfering with my setup.
