Benchmarks of UXA vs. SNA 2D acceleration architectures for Intel xf86-video-intel DDX driver from Git on day of the 2.20.2 release. Also using the Linux 3.5 kernel and Git of Mesa master (8.1-devel) and librm. Intel 2D UXA/SNA benchmarking from an Intel Core i5 (Sandy Bridge) laptop. Benchmarking by Michael Larabel for a future article on Phoronix.com.

The cairo-demos test is a benchmark of Cairo using a collection of Cairo demos created by Chris Wilson at Intel OSTC. This test profile tests Cairo's Xlib back-end (others could be supported upon request) expecting an existing Cairo installation on the test system. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
The cairo-perf-trace test is a benchmark bundled with the upstream Cairo package. This test profile tests Cairo's Xlib back-end using a few of the tests from the cairo-traces repository on FreeDesktop.org Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
This test calculates the average frame-rate from several different GTK operations. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
