It used to.  I remember painful redraw slowness prior to FinMac3, and
there was an option to turn off redraw until you ask for it.  ProComp
had much faster redraw back then, but it had such a bad mem alloc algo
which made ProComp much more crash prone than Finale so I had to leave
ProComp.

This is a little puzzling to me.  OGL is for real-time update.  Static
image shouldn't have that much benefit from it.  You say dragging/
scrolling shows slowness then I'd think OGL is not working properly.
