I am happy to say that I found source of my problems.
DRI2 module.
As long as I start Xorg with "Disable DRI2" in module section I have normal picture and I have normal smooth rotatin of the gears in "glxgears" test.
Output of the "glxgears" without dri2 module:
565 frames in 5.0 seconds = 112.932 FPS
559 frames in 5.0 seconds = 111.726 FPS
558 frames in 5.0 seconds = 111.590 FPS
554 frames in 5.0 seconds = 110.797 FPS
569 frames in 5.0 seconds = 113.742 FPS
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 6301 requests (36 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
Output of TOP:
1676 vas 20 0 15784 4868 1760 R 52.6 0.3 0:03.75 glxgears

Of course there is no H/W acceleration, but no more eyes problems also.
I am happy, I can use fedora.
