I didn't use the proprietary drivers in previous Fedora releases for my
ATI HD 3850. I stuck with the open source 2D drivers with which desktop
performance was great.  Gnome shell was nice and snappy.  HD vids were
butter smooth (though I don't think the open source driver used the ATI
card to decode them).

F17 is different.  The desktop is sluggish, my dual core CPU sits with a
constant load near 1.00, and videos are slightly choppy.  The load issue
is really annoying.

I want to give the proprietary drivers a go; just waiting for the final
release at rpmfusion.
