When I recently switched to an AGP board I pluged in a Matrox G200.
Therefore I had to use the Xaccel Server. With full resolution fxtv 
this takes aprox. 25% of CPU, since the Xaccel has no DGA support,
but that's not a big problem with SMP kernel.

Actually I have no way to do a real compare, but AGP should be the
faster one.
