Thanks Srinivas.  I upped it to 32m, but then

drm0: <ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics> on vgapci0
vgapci0: child drm0 requested pci_enable_busmaster
info: [drm] Initialized radeon 1.31.0 20080613
contigmalloc_map: failed size 33554432 low=0 high=ffffffff align=4096
boundary=0 flags=00000102

So then I upped it to 64m.

And now window dragging is very smooth.  X also starts up faster.  Thanks a
