Melee and Wind Waker run much faster for me. But Spyro: A Hero's tail runs like crap even in the menus on this branch, when it runs mostly okay on master even in game.

Here are a list of games with (known) regressions

NBA Live 2006 - Court Graphics are a fail (I got the fifo log from 2005)

Here's a list of games I've at least played through one level/area on.

Quite the comprehensive list, thanks!
As stated on IRC already, I debugged the NBA issue a bit but couldn't find a good fix, unfortunately.

So everything runs fine for you? If so, that's also good to know, thanks!

I'm aware of a speed decrease in this branch. We do think the slowdown is justified compared to the benefits which this branch gives us, though.
That said, having any actual numbers on the slowdown is nevertheless well-appreciated. Make sure to also post your internal resolution and AA settings, though (as well as whether or not per-pixel-lighting is enabled, and which other things from the "Enhancement" tab in the graphics configuration).
EDIT: Also, you only said the slowdowns where happening in OpenGL. What about D3D?
