These are my results after a fresh reboot: glxgears 30235 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6046.989 FPS 30231 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6046.144 FPS 30411 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6082.149 FPS 30228 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6045.419 FPS 30176 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6035.012 FPS 30243 frames in 5.0 seconds = 6048.541 FPS Only a very marginal improvement over my previous run, above shoown. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, Md, USA
