I've been doing more digging.  I have verified that indeed the software
OpenGL renderer is creating way too much overhead to be useful for the
purposes of this testing, even when just running GLXgears.  GLXgears is
not a particularly good benchmark for use with TCBench, anyhow, because
TCBench monitors a small area at the center of the window, and that area
falls within the area of solid red on the left-hand gear, so it never
changes.

However, I did discover that playing the 1920x1080 version of Big Buck
Bunny from the beginning using VLC in full-screen mode makes a good 2D
benchmark.  The beginning of this movie has full-scene motion on almost
every frame, so if you start TCBench very soon after starting the movie,
you should get a good reading.  When I do this, I get 14-15 fps with TLS
disabled and 4.5 fps with TLS enabled.  In other words, about the same
relative difference as I got with GLXspheres and VirtualGL.

You should be able to perform the above test using my TigerVNC binaries,
which will confirm whether the problem is specific to my build or not.
