When the window pixmap is not the screen pixmap, a GLX/DRI2 buffer swap
involves two copies: one from the DRI2 back buffer to the window pixmap, and
one from the window pixmap to the screen pixmap. It's unrealistic for the
second copy to finish before the end of the vertical blank period, resulting in
the visible tearing.

Could be due to EXA vs. glamor. In the latter case, the copies described above
are rasterized as two triangles each, which makes the tearing more noticeable.
