Mesa 9.2 Brings Better Performance To Intel Ivy Bridge
Xonotic with low quality settings doesn't appear to be any faster with the Git development code over using the Mesa 9.1 stable release.
With high quality Xonotic, the frame-rates are about stable if not a little bit higher.
So far, things are looking good for Ivy Bridge with Mesa 9.2-devel, even at a time when most Intel OTC developers are beginning to focus most of their attention on Haswell and Valley View. More benchmarks to come as the next Mesa release approaches.
