But this wouldn't allocate pixmaps in vram? That is, pixmaps would still be allocated in system ram and on the first operation - migrated, never to return. I would like to avoid the first transfer as well.

That sounds more like it. Suppose I imitate default CreatePixmap behavior in the appropriate EXA hook, except that allocation would be in vram. How would I then hook into migration logic?
