Raspberry Pi's Gallium3D Driver Could Now Run Significantly Faster
Eric Anholt, the lead developer developer behind the Broadcom VC4 Mesa/Gallium3D driver stack for supporting the Raspberry Pi, has announced a new performance achievement.
Eric implemented a user-space buffer object cache for the Gallium3D driver.

This cache reuses buffer objects that haven't been shared to other processes and frees buffer objects that have been in the cache unused for over one second.
