I also get about 500fps with glxgears on my Radeon 7500 64MB SDR card on an 
Athlon 1200. Similarly, enabling page flipping raises the rate to around 
600fps. I'm running with the latest CVS HEAD.

I generally run with page flipping disabled, because when it's enabled I get 
jumpy animation and the appearance of the gears appearing to wobble in 
place.

During my tests, I am running in 1024x768 24bit, with no other apps (not 
even a window manager)
