If you read the rest of the blog post, what he really means is that UXA
skips the migration of pixmaps between video card RAM and main memory,
since for Intel cards they're pretty much the same thing. In fact, GEM as
a whole only really works for Intel integrated graphics. (This is why it's
such a headache for everyone else.)

Hi, Keith
What is the big difference between GEM and TTM?
1) performance?
2) openGL?
3) overdesign?

Thanks
