Well, when I conducted the tests that yielded a performance of 228 FPS with 
dri I forgot that I had [EMAIL PROTECTED] running in the background. This makes 
the whole 
difference in performance. By starting that service I get down to the same 
lousy framerates with dri from the kernel and by stopping it again the 
performance goes up again.

So all in all the performance without [EMAIL PROTECTED] and with dri is 5-6 
times better 
without [EMAIL PROTECTED] and without dri.

This still does not explain why this is working now when it wasn't before I 
compiled a kernel without dri and emerged x11-drm. But hey, it works... ;)
