Agreed, however.. its like measuring something by using the
width of your fingernail as a ruler. As long as you use the same
fingernail to measure two things, you can discern a difference
(improvement or otherwise). That is why I was using glxgears in these
cases, to see if my changes were having positive or negative affects.

Sure.. its crawling along at 7k/sec, so this should take about
13 hours to download. This must be one enormous binary buried in here,
or a LOT of source to build this benchmarking tool.
