       Option "CacheLines" "integer"
              This allows the user to change the amount of graphics memory  used  for  2D  acceleration  and
              video  when  XAA acceleration is enabled.  Decreasing this amount leaves more for 3D textures.
              Increasing it can improve 2D performance at the expense of 3D performance.   Default:  depends
              on  the  resolution, depth, and available video memory.  The driver attempts to allocate space
              for at 3 screenfuls of pixmaps plus an HD-sized XV video.  The default  used  for  a  specific
              configuration can be found by examining the Xorg log file.

[...]

AFAIR it should be set to at least 6144.

R.
