Moving over to the OpenGL benchmarks, with OpenArena there's a small dip in performance when running with the non-default XMir stack.
The Tesseract performance is down by about 5% with the new graphics stack when running with XMir for non-Mir-compliant games/applications.
When running Xonotic was also indicating around a small but measurable performance penalty in having to go through the XMir stack.
