Wow it works, and it's damn fast!

glxgears gives these results :

11305 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2261.000 FPS
14153 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2830.600 FPS
14106 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2821.200 FPS
14142 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2828.400 FPS
13498 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2699.600 FPS
2121 frames in 5.0 seconds = 424.200 FPS
2119 frames in 5.0 seconds = 423.800 FPS

The last two values are obtained in full screen 1024x768.

Thank you for the hack.
