- My question is: How much faster can I get my graphics/anims/scrolls using
- my own viewport rather than using Intuition's windows? I like the fact that
- when going thru windows, it clips gfx automatically and all ya need is
- an openwindow() and openscreen() command, but the speed is HORRIBLE. Now
- I duwanna resort to unfriendly hardware bangin, so is there a significant
- increase in speed when using 'lower-level'/'primitive' viewports? Thanx in
- advance..
