Tell me, can you read?
"I did this, logged in as non-root, and now the framerate is unbearably low, as I
said happens in dX mode."

Also, my other user account is "privileged", and can therefore also do
*everything*, the only differences I see are root being allowed to use pids
under 1024 and root being allowed to edit system files.

Would you stop patronising me, please?

also:
" but running normal programs as root
is one the main reasons that spyware proliferates on windows machines."
I'm not on a windows machine, and when I was I had no problems with spyware. 
Don't talk to me about security, I've been a systems administrator for 5 years
and never once had any trouble with malware of any kind.  I've not even had a
successful hack attempt go past me.

I -have- run it as a non-root user, and a different problem appears.  I don't
see why, though, as I am using the same home directory for the root user, so the
same ~/.wine files are being used.
All I can see is a memory leak, causing a bigger problem for the root account,
possibly because it's allowing wine more RAM?  

I think your attitudes are rather poor about this.  I am a user submitting a
-bug-, who cares what exactly is wrong, this is wine's fault and it did work
before the latest wine version and I'm not an idiot!
