2. your article is WAY too outdated. gnome shell with mutter is using unredirected for fullscreen already since a long time. in this article it still talks about a mutter without that.

Originally posted by PhoronixAlso holding their ground fairly well against Xfce were Unity with Compiz and LXDE while KDE, LXDE, and Razor-Qt were further back.

Performance of desktop environments
I would like to see benchmarks of Steam games (Half Life, Serious Sam3, Team Fortress 2, ...) for different desktop environments, especially Unity, Gnome, KDE and LXDE.
From my experience, Unity is the desktop that give the lowest fps for any OpenGL game.
As these games are mostly available for Linux, Windows and Mac OS, it may also be a good benchmark to compare graphics drivers for all 3 platforms.

LXDE looks really crappy here, what's going on? Can't see why openbox with LXDE's taskbar tanks performance like that... in fact, that seems outright wrong, like super bug wrong.
XFCE on the other hand is about what I expect.

Phoronix: Qt/GTK Speed On Unity/KDE/Xfce/LXDE/GNOME/Razor
Shared earlier today were OpenGL game benchmarks under different Linux desktops. Now to complement those earlier results are 2D performance tests under Unity, KDE, GNOME Shell, Xfce, LXDE, and Razor-qt...
