EXA performance was improved significantly in xserver 1.3. In the meantime, Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy" might provide similar performance as with X.org 6.9. In general though, EXA is only expected to give a benefit when using a compositing manager. And even then, if it doesn't help for you, don't use it - after all it's an option that's disabled by default. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
