I'm running Beryl on my workstation with an intel i865G. I've notice sometimes I run into shm starvation, either causing apps like firefox to fail to run or beryl to paint windows with empty textures. If you run in to this, try increasing the sysctl kern.ipc.shmall. I doubled the default value of 8192 (I think this is in bytes) to 16384 and I've not hit any more problems. I've noticed GLX performance on the intel to be fabulous, using NVIDIA I currently get atrocious frame rates (sub-frame-per-second) on glxgears. I haven't tested on an ATI chip yet.
