[opensuse] nouveau/modesetting speed

Hi *, is there anything I can do to improve graphics speed (2D and 3D) when using the nouveau driver and the modesetting X server module? At the moment this combination works without too many problems with my graphics adapter, but is way slower than the native nvidia driver and X server module (375.26). My system is openSuSE Leap 42.2 and I tested with the latest kernel 4.10.1 and the latest X server and Mesa packages from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/. They are faster than the original combination that came with Leap 42.2, but are still much slower than the nvidia bundle. I don't expect the same speed as with the nvidia driver, but I'd like to do everything to get the most out of nouveau/modesetting. Here is the lspci output for my graphics adapter: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GM107 [GeForce GTX 750] (rev a2) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
