i recently installed xfree 4.3 and am experienceing a major slowdown when running in a 24 bit resolution. as an example i played neverwinternights with no problem, after the upgrade it only runs in 16 bit mode ( unless you like slideshows ). there are some problems with that mode to ( textures, shadows,..) but i think thats not X's fault. direct rendering, agpart and mtrr are enabled. i also set the agp speed to x2. glxinfo shows "Mesa DRI Radeon 20020611 AGP 2x x86/MMX/3DNow! TCL" as rederer version.
There were some recent changes to the Radeon driver in DRI CVS with respect to stencil buffer clears. This seemed to resolve some slow-down problems that other users were having with NWN. Did that resolve your problem as well?
