Thanks. Please Cc me on posts like these to make sure I don't miss them.
No, it doesn't bother me to receive 0.001% more mail.
I've also Cc'd the Xorg list in case someone can give us more insight.

Was fbdev running with EXA or XAA? (does fbdev even support EXA?)
My performance tests with X 1.3 and 1.4 had shown that turning on EXA
makes many operations slower. It's hard to tell why, but it might have to
do with loosing XShmPut() (MIT shared memory), excessive migration of
pixmaps to the framebuffer, and so on. X 1.5 was supposed to have a much
better EXA, at least judging from the stream of patches landed on the tree.
I'd be very interested in seeing the output of oprofile while running your
benchmark on X 1.4 and X 1.5. Please, remember to install the debuginfo
packages for the X server, libcairo, and the geode driver.
