my most recent development builds, whose qmake invocation goes like

(which, by the way, indicates that my qmake_strip workaround is also
included in debian's recent build system), but they do not show a
noticeable reduction in dragging.

neither did invoking openscad as

$ glXSwapIntervalMESA=0 openscad

(was that the way it should work better?)

is there a way to test for the presence of the forced buffer swaps that
is less subjective than watching out for dragging?
