.SH DESCRIPTION
.B EXA
provides a simple API for video drivers to implement for 2D acceleration. It
-is a module loaded by drivers, and is not intended to be loaded on its own. See

The

architecture is designed to make accelerating the Render extension simple and
efficient, and results in various performance tradeoffs compared to XAA. Some
-options are available for debugging performance issues or driver rendering
-problems. They are not intended for general use.

-Enables an additional optimization for migration of destination pixmaps. This
-may improve performance in some cases (e.g. when switching virtual desktops with
-no compositing manager) but causes corruption in others (e.g. when starting

.BI "Option \*qMigrationHeuristic\*q \*q" anystr \*q
Chooses an alternate pixmap migration heuristic, for debugging purposes. The
default is intended to be the best performing one for general use, though others
may help with specific use cases. Available options include \*qalways\*q,
\*qgreedy\*q, and \*qsmart\*q. Default: always.
