ATI's 2D Performance With X.Org Server 1.9

With the transformed blit bilinear operation at 32x32, there was a 54% increase in the number of operations per second sustained, but at 128x128 there was no major change in performance.

The radial gradient paint performance with this X Render extension test was unchanged with the ATI R500 mobile GPU and open-source Radeon driver between X.Org Server 1.8 and 1.9.

The 12pt text LCD test within JXRenderMark wound up being 17% faster with xorg-server 1.9.

When switching to QGears2 with the X Render back-end and the gears there, there was no major change in performance when testing the two xorg-server releases.
