OK, thanks for the clarification.

I will continue my local testing of Mesa master and my own branch with any
problem commits I find reverted -- as long as I am able, I mean.

In the coming weeks I should finally be finding time to begin learning the
code.  Maybe this sort of testing -- profiling, identifying code changes that
affect performance, and explaining the reason for those effects -- will be my
way of learning the code base.

FTR, by pointing out performance problems I find, I am not seeking immediate
fixes or attention for those particular problems.  I am merely hoping to
provide info to developers, in case the info is important.  Mesa actually works
fine for me from master... just 1/3 slower.  ;)
