OpenArena 0.8.5 saw very significant performance improvements in moving from Mesa 9.1.6 to Mesa 9.2.0 with both a pure X.Org Server and when piped through XMir. Running OpenArena 0.8.5 at 1920 x 1080 saw a performance jump by about 30%.

The newer OpenArena 0.8.8 release that makes greater use of GLSL and other slightly more modern GL2 functionality saw only very minor performance improvements.
