While the VDrift frame-rate was up by a couple frames on 7.12-devel for the high-end Radeon X1950PRO, with the Mobility Radeon X1400 on 7.12-devel it is a big performance loss that is similar to the Nexuiz/ioquake3 shortcomings.

The OpenArena frame-rate on the Mobility X1400 notebook drops by nearly 20% with the latest Mesa Git code from this week.
