For some time now, my -CURRENT system will occasionally get
into a
state where graphics is slow to refresh and the Xorg uses
~50%
of
CPU. I notice this in Firefox or GVim when repeatedly
pressing
PgDn on a long site/file, and in Evolution (emails are slow
to
load, and text input is laggy when composing a message).

Update your snapshot and see how it goes.into a

1) test ===> not fixed
2) set "machdep.allowaperture=1" in /etc/sysctl.conf and reboot
3) test ===> not fixed
4) upgrade snapshot and reboot
5) realize I'm behind on openbsd.org/faq/current.html so I run
this: cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV dri
6) reboot
7) test ===> fixed
Thanks for the help!

debugging information that would help track this down?
I did find this in the stdout from firefox:
Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: glxtest:
libpci missing (t=1.57872) [GFX1-]: glxtest: libpci missing
