Frequently in case of Wine we see that display drivers can also be holding back games a lot (a lot of time tends to be spent inside drivers) holding back the GPU.


Like I said above, in windows I'm getting 35-45+ in the menu and in WINE I'm getting 10-11 in the same menu. I'm getting like 30-35+ on the first mission in SCII campaign and I'm getting >10 in WINE. It's clear this is a WINE issue not my hardware.
