Comment 40 for bug 177492

unggnu, thanks for the feedback about that; Ng also said he thought greedy improved things on 855 as well, and I've noticed numerous bugs against 945, etc. that sound suspiciously similar to the 965 issues. If we can confirm greedy addresses issues on more chipsets, then I think forcing greedy for all intel chips would probably be worth doing.

ungnu, could you test with and without the INTEL_BATCH option and see if you can definitively show whether the performance effects are true? (Scrolling firefox on a large web page seems to be a good way to detect performance differences; I wish we had an automated test we could run to do this.)
