Thank you for your report, and for trying to help make Ubuntu better.
However, glxgears is not a good benchmark. The main bottleneck for
glxgears is the ability to put an image on the screen, whereas for
almost all other 3d apps the bottleneck is in actually rendering the
image.
Could you please test with some other 3d applications? There are a
number of 3D games in the repositories. If these show a (significant -
more than a couple of percent) performance reduction, there will be
something to investigate. If this is just changes in the driver which
impact on glxgears performance but nothing else, then it is not a bug,
as no one wants to optimise for glxgears :).
