Do you have RandR and DRI enabled?Do you have RandR and DRI enabled?Posted Jun 20, 2008 9:47 UTC (Fri) by jamesh (subscriber, #1159)In reply to: Do you have RandR and DRI enabled? by nix Parent article: Over 8,000,000 Mozilla Firefox 3 Downloads in 24 Hours (MozillaZine)
I'd guess that the problem is poor performance from the Render extension. It is possible that disabling DRI also disables the acceleration of that extension, leading to the poor performance.

Do you have RandR and DRI enabled? Posted Jun 22, 2008 22:31 UTC (Sun) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] I think only EXA accelerates Render to any extent, so if EXA is being disabled (falling back to XAA) you *might* see a slowdown. (However, on my distinctly aged Athlon desktop with a distinctly aged Radeon video card, I see no performance problems with the render extension at all. However this might be because, my failing memory tells me, the Radeon 9250 et al are one of the few cards to have XAA-accelerated Render...)
