Comment 41 for bug 177492

I am not sure if there is a difference with scrolling but at least with glxgears INTEL_BATCH has an impact. I have read somewhere that INTEL_BATCH have no influence on higher 3D games but I don't know a good 3D benchmark from repository.

I am using current Hardy and in both cases Compiz was active. The resolution on my external display was 1680x1050 and the LFP was disabled.
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)

Hardy with INTEL_BATCH:
4153 frames in 5.0 seconds = 830.491 FPS
4225 frames in 5.0 seconds = 844.903 FPS
4223 frames in 5.0 seconds = 844.403 FPS

Hardy without INTEL_BATCH:
3466 frames in 5.0 seconds = 693.124 FPS
3478 frames in 5.0 seconds = 695.567 FPS
3491 frames in 5.0 seconds = 698.163 FPS

current Gutsy without Compiz and INTEL_BATCH:
3679 frames in 5.0 seconds = 735.717 FPS
3673 frames in 5.0 seconds = 734.414 FPS
3613 frames in 5.0 seconds = 722.541 FPS
