It seems to me that enabling offscreen pixmaps on my 852GM/855GM chipset doesn't make a difference, apart from X behaving slightly "different" when starting up compiz. It seems like up until compiz starts rendering, the windows are offset a little more than with offscreen pixmaps disabled. After compiz has loaded, everything is working as normal again, and the performance seems the same. - Thierry
