Arryn said:But I would not be surprised if there's some rather inefficient code lurking somewhere that's causing the lackluster performance.

Unlikely, it runs fine on 4 (or maybe 5) years old GF2MX. On another hand, most people avoid ATI on Linux (OpenGL) due to amazingly poor performance. We should count ourselves lucky that Dom2 runs on ATI at all. Some other games can't run in OpenGL on ATI at all.

Also, I remember reading that when there're many relatively simple objects (like 5000-6000 units on the battlefield), ATI is not that good (presumably they mostly optimizie for first person shooters). This would also explain, why Dom2 is so slow on ATI.
