(Whiteboard: [gfx-noted]) 

The affected configurations would be: Linux, Mac+BasicCompositor, Windows XP (and non-accelerated Windows in general due to blacklisting).

That would remove synchronous transactions and also help us move away from the buffer rotation code which is in a terrible shape, and more generally remove some of the differences between our supported platforms.

The combination of prefs I am suggesting is:
"layers.enable-tiles" => true
"layers.tiled-drawtarget.enabled" => true
"gfx.content.use-native-pushlayer" => false (broken with tiled-drawtarget)

That would match what we do on mac and mobile.
