glxgears

On Dec 25, Peter Harmsen launched this into the bitstream:

> I have a FreeBSD box on a Elitegroup K7S5A mobo with a Asus TI4200 AGP 8x graphics card and AMD 512 MB sdram XP2000+ CPU.I get 3600 FPS with glxgears after i recompiled the kernel without agp and tweaked the Nvidia driver source a little.On a Linux box with AMD XP2500+ CPU with 1024 MB ddr and FX5700 card i only get 3200 FPS with glxgears.Quite remarkable to say the least.

In a word - "no"
but - to be scrupulously fair - that could be due to the ingestion of 
enormous qty's of food, wine, beer & raki

That isn't what you wanted to hear - I know
