Hi,

Has someone tested the Snazzy/SandyBridge New Acceleration [1] yet?

[1] http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=OTUyOQ

Since it was merged to -intel master 47 hours ago, it seems
xorg-edgers's bdb396a4 build should have it. So just asking if anyone
was brave enough to test it yet :)

I went from 2 fps to 40 fps on the fishtank test.

Rest of graphics stack is Oneiric stable.

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:27a2] (rev 03)

The gains provided by SNA, especially on a 5 year old laptop like mine, are ridiculous. My X sessions are crash-free so far and I've only noticed trivial artifacts so far, mostly with Xv output.
