Where is this suggestion mentioned? Is there a bug number?

I cannot use EXA on my laptop because of an old bug with
xorg-ati-radeon that gives a CPU spike with EXA. Furthermore, when I
experimented a small bit with using EXA (X and fvwm was very
unresponsive, but it doesn't crash), most of the sites with the visual
glitch problem were "fixed", but a few different ones started having a
different glitch, and a few of the sites that had a glitch now has a
more minor, less noticeable glitch. 

I would like to track this bug/forum post to see if a more mature
solution is proposed.
