This appears to be an artifact of the degree to which Utah-glx is
'tuned' for the Matrox card.  Using a benchmark of a standard G400
with both XFree86 3.3.6 + Utah and XFree86 4.0.1 + DRI + AGP
(preloading all the requisite modules), it's a sad fact that 4.0.1 is
less than half the speed using all the various xlock/glclock/glracer
type benchmarks.  I'm sticking with 3.3.6 for now. ;)
