Radeon DRM Linux 3.3 Performance
Benchmarks of the Radeon Linux kernel DRM from Linux 3.2, 3.3 (latest Git; near-final), and drm-next (Linux 3.4) kernels. Using a Radeon HD 6950 Cayman and Radeon HD 5770 cards for testing. Also using Mesa 8.1-devel and xf86-video-ati Git DDX as of date of testing (14 March). Swap buffers wait was disabled, rest of the stuff at stock settings. Linux benchmarking for a future article on Phoronix.
