Okay. The default for the RingSize is 1 Mb. Default for the BufferSize is 2 Mb. It seems the BufferSize cannot be set any higher than this. The X log shows the option enabled at a higher setting, but later states that the vertex/indirect buffer is only the default 2 Mb. Does the Option "BufferSize" not function at the moment? Or does this setting refer to a different buffer? Also, my xserver would complain if pageflipping was not enabled and then it would segfault. So I can't turn it off at the moment (not that I'd want to).
