** Description changed:

  I noticed bad performance regression with xorg-server 1.5.2 (intrepid) 
against 1.4 (hardy). For the detailed report see here:
  http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039277.html
  
- 1) Reading the suggestions from the thread appears that this patch could fix 
the performance problem:
+ There are two known problems:
+ 
+ 1) Patch to fix slow EXA in 1.5.2:
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039405.html
+ 
+ 2) Reading the suggestions from the thread at
+ http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039277.html
+ this backported patch from 1.6 should fix the performance regression in 1.5:
  
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.5-branch&id=8ef37c194fa08d3911095299413a42a01162b078
  
- The fix was applied to the 1.5 branch but was later reverted. It appears that 
the fix also require another patch:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039285.html
- commit
- 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=ebea78cdba0ff14a397239ee1936bd254c181e1b
- (and maybe also rebuilt drivers).
- 
- 2) Another patch to fix slow EXA in 1.5.2:
- http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2008-October/039405.html
+ The fix was applied to the 1.5 branch but was later reverted. It appears that 
this fix breaks  the ABI (so it's not for intrepid):
