We had discussion about this already and you concluded that problem is
in drivers and it can't be helped and you said perf was useless.

Despite newer drm and mesa releases, it still persists, unfortunately
(well, I haven't changed video card because I don't see many reasons
to..).

That issue, plus this one:

(I continued it on the same thread)
are the ones why I have to use -vf ass rendering exclusively. I mean,
karaoke effect is one thing, but having insane slowdown on both 16/9 and
4/3 videos just because my monitor is 16/10 is >.< (I finally got rid of
old 4/3 aspect CRT last summer, but the problem in question is worse on
16/10 monitor in either case).
