Phoronix: Intel Haswell HD Graphics Benchmarks With Linux 3.16

Phoronix benchmarks have shown that when using the Linux 3.16 kernel, the Nouveau performance is faster when taking advantage of the experimental re-clocking. Additionally, the Radeon graphics performance is faster on Linux 3.16 for newer graphics cards thanks to other optimizations. For Intel Haswell Linux users are there any performance improvements in store for Linux 3.16? Here's some tests.

Michael, could you please compare the power consumption on your Haswell system between 3.15 and 3.16 drm-next especially when idle? On my Haswell Laptop when idle the cpu frequency frequently jumps to maximum and deeper package states are never reached resulting in 5-6 watts more idle power consumption compered to 3.15.

What about IRIS Pro on 3.16?

Michael,
Any improvements on Iris Pro side?
Last time you show benchs, seens no diference between kernel 3.11 (no eDram) and 3.12(with eDram).
They worked on that area?
