This might be a bit OT already but mx11mark could be one useful
benchmarking tool as well. It measures mainly the xrender performance on
the relevant parts. So basically, without a hw accelerated X.Org 2d
driver, it measures the pixman performance.


http://sandbox.movial.com/wiki/index.php/Mx11mark

"Movial X11 Mark is a customizable tool for benchmarking X11 operations.
It was created for the purpose of executing benchmarks that approximate
the profile of real-life applications, instead of a synthetic set of
tests that existing tools use. The sequence of benchmarks to run, as
well as some overall parameters, is defined by a simple script file."
