Well, then what does it mean if amount of dropped frames has been 
increased with new version of driver? And, though it is not relevant 
to mplayer, glxgears also show about 3% performance drop.

Sure, no problem.

I just wanted to show some benchmark data. If you are sure that my 
tests were incorrect, I would be glad if somebody could point me a 
right direction, how to perform these tests. Can you help?
