FC12 video speed

I notice that in a VM under KVM (from cli) that video seems faster than the last 
few releases. And in fact my totally meaningless test, glxgears, shows that it 
is. Now on raw hardware I would say that was a better driver, but running on the 
FC9 version of KVM I can't see why that would be so.

So, great work guys, love the improvement in everything, but why? Could it be 
because metacity isn't running? It aborts constantly (bug filed) and is that a 
performance tip? ;-)

Anyway, nice stuff, runs well on bare iron as well, looking for a good 
non-critical place to install it.
