On my T41 I get times like this:

7371 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1474.200 FPS
7246 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1449.200 FPS
6185 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1237.000 FPS
767 frames in 5.0 seconds = 153.400 FPS
8322 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1664.400 FPS
772 frames in 5.0 seconds = 154.400 FPS
770 frames in 5.0 seconds = 154.000 FPS
770 frames in 5.0 seconds = 154.000 FPS
771 frames in 5.0 seconds = 154.200 FPS

The 1000+ ones are in half-screen windows, the 154 ones are fullscreen.

I have this in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6:

agpgart
intel-agp
radeon

The relevant bits of my xorg.conf are:

Section "Module"
         Load  "record"
         Load  "extmod"
         Load  "dbe"
         Load  "dri"
         Load  "glx"
         Load  "xtrap"
         Load  "freetype"
         Load  "type1"
EndSection

Section "DRI" # I had to add this manually
         Mode 0666
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
         Identifier   "Monitor0"
         VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
         ModelName    "Monitor Model"
         Option       "DPMS"
EndSection
