My best guess is that pygame double buffering is no longer supported by the driver and your observing a vsync related frame redraw that should be happening in the hidden buffer. The blank band will grow as the scene gets more complicated :( Other pygame activities will also be affected (I've seen one mention of someone seeing something similar in Maze). I've looked to see if there's anything I can do to improve Physics at the activity level, but haven't found any options yet.
