Intel's Linux OpenGL Driver Faster Than Apple's OS X Driver

[wraggster]

The open-source Intel Linux graphics driver has hit a milestone of now being faster than Apple's own OpenGL stack on OS X (http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel_snb_osx1304&num=1). The Intel Linux driver on Ubuntu 13.04 is now clearly faster than Apple's internally-developed Intel OpenGL driver on OS X 10.8.3. when benchmarked from a 'Sandy Bridge' class Mac Mini. Only some months ago, Apple's GL driver was still trouncing the Intel Linux Mesa driver
