Beware the benchmarks.

| Today phoronix published an article called 
| âThe Cost of Running Compizâ. While the 
| content in the article is mostly true, and 
| likely points out the obvious, I should 
| probably clarify a few things before my 
| inbox fills up with (n readers * ~ 8 ) mails 
| telling me that compiz is slow and I need to 
| fix it.
| 
| The article basically tests the performance 
| of applications while they are being run as 
| redirected windows. What does that mean? 
| Well, for the better part of the year, 
| pretty much 95% of graphics hardware has 
| some support for what we call âredirected 
| direct renderingâ, both through open source 
| and proprietary drivers. NVIDIA was the 
| first to get this feature, and then most of 
| the other drivers picked it up last year.

| Always feared that controlling Compiz with
| the power of thought alone was something
| only available for Jedi's and Sylar from
| Heroes? Think again. (Bad pun. BAD pun.)
