You wanna be *really* impressed with how fast your card is? :-)

When running glxgears, minimise it and let it run for a minute or so.
Boy, ain't your card the fastest one on the block! :-) .

Cheers.

Interestingly enough, resizing the window smaller actually runs faster than
minimized!
I guess if you demand high frame rates from glxgears, just size the window as
small as it will go (till gears are just couple of mm in diameter)

It is interesting how people like high frame rates.
We need only 30 for smooth motion, all over that serves nothing.
