MESA --
Marek Olšák at AMD has published his latest patch series: 24 patches providing further clean-ups and micro-optimizations to Gallium3D's Mesa state tracker.

Marek has been successful in nailing down some more micro optimizations for helping reduce Mesa's driver CPU overhead little by little. The result is a 10~20% improvement in the DrawElements performance in a simple test.
