performance drop with running xosview



Hello all,


Has someone get a significant performance drop in an open-gl application

with X 4.0.1-1.deb's ?

Description:
up-to-date woody (04.11.00)
Kernel: 2.2.18pre11 (hey ALSA works now with this kernel; agpgart is
enabled; this is a big NO
Dieter Nuetzel said in the newsgroup 3dfx.linux.glide; but this kernel
need it at least)

Vodoo 4500 AGP
Epox Motherboard with VIA KX133;256MB RAM; 600 MHz slot A Athlon

If i play the game parsec (www.parsec.org), i get a good playable
framerate without a running
xosview;  85 fps max  (640x480@16bpp).(per key "i " from the game)
The framerate drops to about 60 fps with a running xosview.
This is not to bad; but if i move around in the game i get  a subjective
(info shows 60 fps) framerate
of 1 fps (yes one per second; difficult to explain)

Game tuxracer drops also, but not visible (framerate about 22 fps max)


Anyone has seen this?
Any hints?
Kernel or X related or xosview bug or maybe parsec-bug?

Greetings

Reiner Stallknecht


PS: Kernel 2.4.0test10pre? shows this also
