basic OpenGL vs XV performance stats

Thought I'd share some Cinelerra performance stats using OpenGL versus non-OpenGL (XV) display drivers. I used two tracks of identical length (32s), but different content.

OpenGL
one 32s 720P track: 20fps
two 32s 720P tracks, both play enabled, no fade on top track: 2.97fps
two 32s 720P tracks, both play enabled, 50% fade on top track: 3.04fps

Stopped then restarted Cinelerra and performed next test.

XV
one 32s 720P track: 10.6fps
two 32s 720P tracks, both play enabled, no fade on top track: 2.2fps
two 32s 720P tracks, both play enabled, 50% fade on top track: 2.18fps

Not fabulous performance for using > 1 track, but still slight improvement over XV.
