 Hi there,

 The speed should indeed be about the same since Haiku's app_server doesn't
 use hardware acceleration anymore.
 From what I hear the available old BeOS acceleration commands are not
 sufficient for the current way the app_server draws (it uses some newer
 techniques for 'eye candy' or so).

 Closing the bug since it's no bug, but 'intended behaviour'. You will
 notice the same effect on all other graphics drivers. (Though PCIe's
 bandwidth is large enough so you won't notice it on such a gfx card, as
 opposed to AGP cards).

 Greetings!

 Rudolf.
