Do you get a similar effect with the THROTTLE in the ddx and a recent kernel (2.6.37-rc1 or drm-intel-next)? Those kernels should only penalize the caller of THROTTLE and so X should not end up blocking your app. I can feel a new tracepoint coming: throttle-begin, throttle-end. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
