Due to removing the system wide MMU conflit AGP GART causes when you use PCI GART you may in fact see higher performance with the AGP GART feature removed.
So the question is how many with AGP cards suffer performance losses and how many get performance gains and how many come in at nothing changed at all. Yes it going to be a true mixed bag outcome. There is one universal thing here the PCI GART mode is stable due to not random-ally butting in on the system wide MMU and the AGP GART is not so reduced graphic card caused issues by the change.
So stability will gain and the performance outcome is kind of going to be all over the place.
NetBSD still depends on the upstream Linux drivers for this stuff.
