Athlon XP 2200+, 1G ram, nvidia Gforce4 MX 420, nvidia driver 1.0-8774 glxgears small window: 6030 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1206.000 FPS 20435 frames in 5.0 seconds = 4087.000 FPS 41964 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8392.800 FPS 41435 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8287.000 FPS 40320 frames in 5.0 seconds = 8064.000 FPS full screen: 3157 frames in 5.0 seconds = 631.400 FPS 2092 frames in 5.0 seconds = 418.400 FPS 3345 frames in 5.0 seconds = 669.000 FPS 3349 frames in 5.0 seconds = 669.800 FPS 3349 frames in 5.0 seconds = 669.800 FPS Never have had any problems (except when monitoring the cpu tells glxgears using 100% of cpu) Still have no problems to open up lots of proggys when playing a game.

Curiously I have a similar issue. I get fairly slow framecount unless I log in as root. Then I get about 20 times the number of frames per second.
Any suggestions/similarities?
I wanted to check FlightGear, therefore I had to activate 3D and accel. I downloaded the newest nvidia driver, NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8776-pkg1.run. I modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf in the same way I had done previously in 9.3 where it worked, and rebooted.
I try "glxgears", small window:
cer@nimrodel:~> glxgears 3596 frames in 5.0 seconds = 719.072 FPS 4023 frames in 5.0 seconds = 804.191 FPS 4011 frames in 5.0 seconds = 802.194 FPS
full screen
697 frames in 5.0 seconds = 139.220 FPS 652 frames in 5.0 seconds = 130.221 FPS
The gears turn slowly, and the main cpu soars to 100%. This is not normal.
