Agreed. On my mundane system with simple video card I don't see a difference
in rendering performance. But Oleg does. I think Chris found the overall
window performance to be similar on his system. It could be that basic
systems are the same, medium systems show a difference, and advanced systems
are again the same.

This is going to depend on the underlying opengl drivers.
Reading
http://www.opengl.org/resources/faq/technical/rasterization.htm
it looks like opengl should be doing a lot of this buffering work
for you -- which means, on a high performance system, that the
time consuming aspects of double buffering will be implemented
with special hardware, and probably be outside the scope of the
operating system.
