Without acceleration, the CPU has to render every single pixel. With a discrete
graphics card, this involves moving data back and forth across AGP/PCI(e), which
is relatively slow.

Note that this may also be partly an application issue. E.g. the GNOME terminal
has traditionally been known not to be too efficient wrt screen updates.

> I don't know anything about sub-pixel acceleration. how do I disable it?

E.g. in the GNOME font preferences (it's called 'Subpixel smoothing' there), or
in the fontconfig configuration in /etc/fonts/.
