Thanks for that. So it looks like Gallium Nine patched Wine on FOSS drivers is neck in neck with Catalyst with a CSMT patched Wine. I imagine CSMT comes out really strong with the proprietary Nvidia driver.
The advantage to CSMT is that it's already built into Crossover (if you own that like me) plus is easily accessible from PlayOnLinux, which has multiple CSMT builds of Wine to choose from (you just have to add the CSMT="enabled" registry key), and works with Intel and the faster AMD and Nvidia proprietary drivers.
That said, CSMT and Gallium Nine aren't perfect. In a few games, CSMT and Gallium Nine have to be disabled because they can cause rendering issues or artifacts. This is probably partly why the Wine team doesn't want to merge these patches into mainline. At least PlayOnLinux and Crossover make it easy to choose which games in their own Wine prefixes have CSMT enabled or disabled.
